Jalandhar: In a shocking development, Pakistani gangster Shahzad Bhatti has released a video claiming responsibility for the grenade attack on the residence of popular Indian YouTuber Rozer Sandhu in Jalandhar. The attack, which occurred on the night of March 16, has raised serious concerns over cross-border terror links and the growing influence of organized crime.
Bhatti, who is allegedly linked to notorious Indian gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, claimed in his video that the attack was carried out as an act of retaliation against Sandhu for allegedly defaming Islam, the Prophet, and the Kabbah. He also thanked his alleged accomplices—Zeeshan Akhtar, the mastermind behind Baba Siddique’s murder, and US-based terrorist Happy Passia—for their support.
Chilling Threats from Bhatti
In his statement, Bhatti issued a dire warning:
“If he survives, we will strike again. He is not alone—there were five of them, and they thought we had forgotten. I want to thank my two brothers, Zeeshan Akhtar and Happy Passia, for their support.”
He further threatened authorities, demanding the arrest of Sandhu and his associates, claiming he would provide names and photographs. “If you want to prevent bloodshed and maintain peace, then arrest them. If not, I will ensure their destruction in a way that their next seven generations will remember,” he warned.
Video Footage and Police Investigation
A video of the attack has surfaced online, showing a man inside a car directing another individual to remove the pin from a grenade-like object and throw it onto the second floor of Sandhu’s house. Following the attack, Punjab Police launched an investigation and recovered a metallic object from the crime scene, which is currently being examined by the bomb disposal squad.
In response to the shocking claims, Bhatti’s Instagram account has reportedly been suspended in India following a legal request from Punjab Police. Authorities are now probing Bhatti’s links to organized crime syndicates operating between India, Pakistan, and the US.
The incident has intensified concerns over cross-border crime and terror networks, prompting security agencies to step up surveillance on individuals associated with such gangs.
