In a recent big development in the Sidhu Moose Wala murder case, gangster Goldy Brar, who is reportedly the mastermind of the brutal killing of the singer, has been detained by the authorities in California, United States.
Goldy Brar, who is a gangster based in Canada, had taken the responsibility for murdering Sidhu Moose Wala, who was shot dead by assailants while he was traveling in his car in the Mansa district of Punjab.
Brar had uploaded a social media post claiming responsibility for the killing, shortly after the Punjabi singer was declared dead, saying that he had orchestrated the murder as an act of revenge against Moose Wala, who was allegedly involved with a rival gang.

Sources from India's intelligence have confirmed that Goldy Brar has been detained by authorities in California, which means that the extradition process to India can happen anytime soon. Brar will first be presented in front of the court, after which the extradition process is expected to start.
It must be noted that California police have not yet made an official statement about Brar being detained.
Goldy Brar has been an active member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and was majorly involved in the brutal shootout that killed Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala. Earlier, Bishnoi himself had confessed in jail that his gang played a hand in killing Moose Wala.
The Interpol had also issued a Red Corner Notice (RCN) against Goldy Brar earlier this year, urging all countries to advance his extradition process to India if he is found in their premises.
