In an Instagram post, Malton spoke about his long-awaited meeting, his concerns regarding the management of Moose Wala’s legacy and his commitment to standing by the singer’s family.
Malton acknowledged that many fans had expected the meeting to happen much earlier. However, he said he trusted the timing and felt that the long wait had only strengthened his love for Moose Wala’s parents.
Shares Feelings About Sidhu Moose Wala’s Murder

Raises Questions About Management of Singer’s Legacy
