man, identified as a prominent figure in organised crime in Canada, and his 11-year-old son were shot dead in south Edmonton.

Police have described it as an escalation of gang violence in the province.

Harpreet Singh Uppal and his son were fatally shot outside a fuel station on the afternoon of November 9, 2023.

The boy’s friend, who was in Uppal’s car at the time, survived with no injuries.

Police said the boy was intentionally killed, not “caught in the crossfire”.

Uppal and his family were the targets of a 2021 shooting. They were having dinner at Royal Pizza when a gunman fired through the window.

Harsh Jindal – who police claimed was the getaway driver – was charged in the case.

In October 2023, his charges were dropped.

The Alberta Crown Prosecution Service said the charges were stayed after a preliminary inquiry led to the conclusion that there was “no longer a reasonable likelihood of conviction”.

Jindal’s lawyer Kristofer Advent said his client “has always maintained his innocence with respect to the shooting at the Royal Pizza” and was out of the province at the time of the shooting.

Mr Advent said: “Mr Jindal has advised that he was not involved in this incident in any way.

“He has been outside of Alberta since Oct 30, 2023, and he was nowhere near Edmonton on Nov 9, 2023.”

Uppal was scheduled to appear in court in May 2024 on charges of possessing cocaine for trafficking, possessing stolen property and possessing illegal body armour.

After the shooting, police found Uppal and his son in distress. However, they died at the scene. By 2 pm, over a dozen police vehicles closed 52 Street.

A suspect vehicle was identified as a stolen 2012 BMW X6.

Superintendent Derksen said the vehicle was found near 34 Street on fire a short while later. No one was inside the car and there were no reported injuries as a result of the fire.

No suspects have been identified.

Although he did not say if Uppal was associated with any specific groups, sources said he was a prominent Brothers Keepers (BK) associate.

The violence originated in the Vancouver area but killings are now happening across Canada.

The day before Uppal’s death, UN member Parmvir Chahil was shot dead in Toronto.

Superintendent Derksen said it was too early to say “if there’s a connection” to violence in other cities, “or if there is, how far-reaching it is.”

Sangat Ji. You have a responsibility to hold accountable all criminals in roop. Punjabis can be criminals but not Sikhs unless rightousness is a crime. 

Selling coke for the cia is a busted racket not fit for those oppressed peoples enticed by it. 

Shoulda saved this dudes son years ago.

We don't deal poison. We don't shake people down. We don't traffick in people. We don't rob or steal except from the repositories of our attackers.

We do ..hold ultimately accountable anyone that does that in our names. If we don't we are allowing the destruction of our garden and can blame ourselves for becoming like them.
