Two Surrey men charged over shooting at comedian Kapil Sharma's café in BC
Two Indian-origin men have been arrested in Surrey, British Columbia, and charged in connection with a shooting at Kap's Cafe — the café owned by Indian comedian and actor Kapil Sharma — theprint.in reports.
Pardeep Singh and Saveer Khan, both 22, were taken into custody on 1 November 2026 by the BC Provincial Extortion Task Force, working alongside the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of BC (CFSEU-BC) and the Surrey Police Service.
The two face two counts of reckless discharge of a firearm, relating to separate incidents on 12 October and 16 October 2025.
Three attacks since the café opened
Kap's Cafe, located in British Columbia, has been targeted in three distinct shooting incidents since it opened in July 2025. The first occurred in the early hours of 10 July, when multiple shots were fired at the establishment from a moving vehicle. Harjit Singh Laddi, linked to the banned separatist group Babbar Khalsa International, and gangster Goldy Dhillon both claimed responsibility for that attack.
A second shooting followed on 7 August. Dhillon and gangster Kulveer Sidhu described it as a "warning" and claimed joint responsibility.
The third incident — the one now at the centre of the criminal charges — took place on 16 October. A gunman again fired multiple rounds at the café. Sidhu and Dhillon again claimed responsibility. According to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), the business was closed at the time, and two employees who were inside were not injured.
Link to a Surrey residence shooting
Investigators identified a connection between the 16 October café shooting and a separate incident four days earlier. On 12 October 2025, police responded to a report of shots fired at a residential address in Surrey; a female victim sustained injuries in that attack.
The BC Extortion Task Force took over both investigations after potential links between the two incidents were established. The RCMP said the charges followed more than a year of investigative work, including multiple judicial authorisations, search warrants, and detailed evidence analysis.
RCMP: charges send a clear message
Chief Superintendent Duncan Pound of the RCMP said the outcome reflected coordinated effort across agencies. "These charges are the result of extensive investigative work conducted over the past year," Pound said.
"We recognise and share the concerns these incidents created within the community and have worked diligently as an integrated team to continue gathering the evidence which has resulted in the charges announced today," he added. "These charges should serve as another clear message to those involved in extortion-related violence that law enforcement is working collaboratively to ensure public safety."
Singh and Khan are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court.
