No official confirmation has been provided in the case so far.

According to preliminary reports, the gangster was shot dead at Hotel Fairmount in California.

However, the intelligence agencies and security officials are tight-lipped about the incident and are yet to confirm the shootout.

It was long believed that the fugitive gangster was residing in Canada. He was also among Canada's 25 most wanted.

Goldy Brar's name cropped up after it was found that he was the mastermind behind the killing of Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, also known as Sidhu Moosewala. The singer was allegedly killed on the instructions of Brar on May 29, 2022.
