Gangster Goldy Brar was declared a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act by the central government on Monday. A notice issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs said Goldy Brar is associated with the banned Khalistani outfit Babbar Khalsa International.
The Home Ministry said Goldy Brar is backed by cross-border terror agencies and was involved in multiple killings, involved in making threatening calls to pro-nationalist leaders, demanding ransom and posting the claims of killings on different social media platforms.
The Canada-based terrorist had also claimed responsibility for the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala in 2022. Moose Wala was shot dead in Punjab's Mansa district in May 2022.
