Gangster Threat to Singer Mankirt Aulakh Emerges After Chandigarh Shooting

Chandigarh: A fresh controversy has surfaced after an alleged threat message targeting Punjabi artist Mankirt Aulakh began circulating online, reportedly linked to the Bambiha gang. The development follows a recent murder in Chandigarh that has already drawn significant attention from law enforcement agencies.

An audio clip, believed to feature Lucky Patial, contains a chilling warning directed at the singer. In the recording, the speaker claims responsibility for the killing of a local property dealer and goes on to suggest that Aulakh could be the next target. The message also mocks the singer’s security arrangements, implying they would not be enough to prevent an attack.

The threat surfaced shortly after the killing of Chamanpreet Singh in Sector 9, where the victim was shot multiple times in a brazen attack. The gangster, through social media posts, alleged that the victim had been leaking information to rival groups, claiming previous warnings had been ignored.

Investigators are now examining whether the threat to Aulakh is directly connected to the Chandigarh murder case. Authorities are also working to verify the authenticity of the viral audio and identify those responsible for circulating it.

Sources reveal that the deceased had attended a New Year’s event where Aulakh had performed in Mohali, and images from the gathering were later shared online. While no official link has been established, the overlap has added another layer of complexity to the case.

Police officials have yet to make a formal statement, but security around individuals potentially at risk is expected to be reviewed. The incident has once again drawn attention to the growing trend of criminal elements using online platforms to issue threats and claim involvement in violent acts.

The situation remains under close watch as authorities continue their investigation into both the murder and the alleged threat, with efforts focused on preventing any further escalation.
