A Canada-based Indian-origin gang has claimed responsibility for the killing of popular Punjabi singer Teji Kahlon.
Members of the Rohit Godara gang released a video on social media, openly admitting that they carried out the attack.
According to media reports, three members of the gang, Vicky Pehlwan, Mahinder Saran and Rahul Rinao, confessed to the murder in an online message. They also issued a chilling warning, saying, “If he understands, fine. If not, we will finish him next time,” suggesting that more people could be on their target list.
The gang also challenged businessmen, builders and others accused of supporting rival gangsters, threatening that neither they nor their families would be spared.
Reports said that Teji Kahlon was accused of helping rival groups by providing them with money, weapons and inside information. The shocking incident has once again highlighted the growing connection between the Indian Punjabi music industry and international criminal networks.
Canadian police have launched an investigation into the shooting, which reportedly took place in Canada on October 22, 2025. Multiple reports said Kahlon was shot in the stomach in what appears to be a targeted gang-related attack. His attackers later claimed online that he supplied weapons and intelligence to rival gangs.
