Punjabi singer and Congress leader Sidhu Moose Wala’s father Balkaur Singh on Sunday demanded justice for his son and said he would leave India if there is no development in his murder investigation. Questioning the police probe, he ruled out any gang war link to his case.

Balkaur Singh also claimed that Sidhu Moose Wala was “murdered in a planned way”. “I’ve sought time from DGP to hear my problems. I’ll wait for a month, if nothing happens, I’ll withdraw my FIR and leave the country,” he told news agency ANI.

Earlier this month, Deepak Tinu, one of the accused behind the murder, escaped from CIA’s grip. He is a close aide of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, and was one of the persons involved in planning Moose Wala’s killing.

Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead in Punjab’s Mansa when he was driving his car on May 29, 2022. Investigations later revealed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi has the prime accused behind the planning.

A day before the attack, the Punjab government had pulled security cover for over 400 individuals, including Moose Wala, in a bid to clamp down on VIP culture.

Moose Wala started off as a Punjabi songwriter before a hit song in 2017 kicked off his singing career. He joined the Congress party earlier this year, ahead of Punjab Assembly elections in March.
