Arpan said he used to go to work with his father every day but was not with him Monday. “I usually go to work with him every day, so I was supposed to be in that truck today,” he said.According to reports,Lawrence Bishnoi gang member Goldie Dhillon claimed to kill Sahsi in a social media post which is now being investigated by the Indian and Canada Police. Goldie claimed that the murder was due to the denial of an extortion demand and it also accused Sahsi of being involved in drug trafficking operation.
