The complainant, Harpreet Singh, told the police that he had got a WhatsApp call from an international number and the caller identified himself as Goldy Brar, a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. He demanded Rs40 lakh from him and threatened him with dire consequences it he failed to pay. On Thursday night around 11:30 pm, two unidentified youths fired a shot into the air and another at the Brew Bros microbrewery premises and fled the spot.
