NDTV
Gurvinder Singh, who sat in the front seat next to Sidhu Moose Wala, has revealed how the gruesome shooting went down.
A day after the cremation of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala, whose killing shocked the music fraternity and fans alike, chilling details of the plot to murder him have emerged. The singer was travelling in his Mahindra Thar SUV to visit his ailing aunt in the Barnala district when he was gunned down in broad daylight.
His friends Gurvinder Singh, who sat in the rear seat, and Gurpreet Singh, who sat next to him in the front seat, were his co-passengers. The former has revealed how it all went down.
He said since five people were difficult to accommodate in a Thar jeep, he didn't travel with his pared-down security detail. The moment Sidhu Moose Wala reached his aunt's village, a shot was fired from behind the vehicle and another vehicle blocked his jeep from the front.
A man carrying an automatic assault rifle appeared in front of the jeep and started firing indiscriminately, he said. The 28-year-old singer also fired two rounds from his pistol, which was later recovered from his jeep, but it was no match for the sophisticated assault rifles.
