Goldy Brar: Notorious gangster and his connections with Lawrence Bishnoi

Goldy Brar is one of the most notorious names in organized crime, more specifically linked to India. His life has been steeped in violence and criminal activity, and it is this history that thrust him to the forefront as one of the leaders of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Being associated with one of the most notorious criminal syndicates makes him a man of great interest to law enforcement agencies in India and beyond.

Who is Goldy Brar?

Goldy Brar hails from Punjab’s Muktsar district. He drew attention mainly because of his connection with Lawrence Bishnoi – a convicted gangster known for his notorious reputation. Brar’s criminal career had begun to make its mark in full swing when he landed in Canada in 2017 on a student visa. He continued masterminding major criminal activities such as extortion and contract killings, along with smuggling arms into the international market.

Even though Brar moved to Canada, he remained in close touch with Bishnoi’s connections in India, and over time, became a core member of the gang. This alliance only further cemented him as one of the most prominent players in the underworld in India.

The image of Brar is now firmly that of a ruthless criminal, untouched by violence, yet swift in taking things into his own hands. His crime empire stretches both borders and remains to date significantly impactful on the crime scenario​

The Sidhu Moosewala Murder

Goldy Brar’s name became international after he was blamed for the shocking murder of a famous Punjabi musician, Sidhu Moosewala in May 2022. He was identified as the mastermind of the murder carried out to resolve some issues in personal revenge related to a political rivalry. The murder sparked outrage across India, drawing attention to Brar’s violent tactics and growing criminal influence. The killing was widely reported and marked a dark chapter in Punjab’s criminal history.

Brar soon became very much in the public eye shortly after the murder, and law enforcement agencies were simply busy going after him. Interpol issued a Red Corner Notice against him, and Brar became one of the most wanted criminals in the country. His claim of responsibility over the murder was only the tip of the iceberg as probes later showed that he was connected to several other serious crimes including organized extortion and high-profile killings.

Connections between Goldy Brar and Lawrence Bishnoi

Goldy Brar’s rise to infamy goes hand-in-hand with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Bishnoi is serving time in Indian jails and heads a criminal syndicate that has been in existence for decades, having carried out murder, arms trading, and other illicit trade. Brar had become one of the trusted associates of Lawrence Bishnoi, who with the latter had planned several cross-border crimes, too, has links with terrorist groups and other syndicates.

The relationship between Goldy Brar and Lawrence Bishnoi was further strengthened with Brar’s involvement in the murders of several people. He commanded various operations like extortions, smuggling of weapons, and coordination of killings not only in India but also outside its territories. Direct violence and intimidation, such as public threats to other celebrities and politicians, were present in most cases where Brar was involved in these criminal activities.

Goldy Brar’s Terrorist Ties

The Indian government formally designated Goldy Brar a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in 2024. This comes after several acts of terrorism that involved links with the Khalistani separatist organization Babbar Khalsa International, also designated in India as a terrorist organization. In actuality, Brar’s criminal activities are not only related to organized crimes but also cross-border terrorism, arms smuggling, and disruption of national security.
