Canadian police have arrested two men in connection with multiple shooting incidents targeting comedian Kapil Sharma’s cafe in Surrey, British Columbia. The arrests have been made by the British Columbia Provincial Extortion Task Force.
The accused have been identified as 22-year-old Pradeep Singh and 22-year-old Savir Khan. Both were arrested in Surrey and have been charged with criminal offences related to the shootings. They are currently in custody, according to police.
Kapil Sharma launched his restaurant, Kap’s Cafe, in Surrey, British Columbia, in July 2025. However, the establishment came under attack just days after its opening.
The first shooting incident took place on July 10, 2025, when unidentified attackers opened fire at the cafe. A second attack was reported on August 7, followed by a third shooting on October 16, 2025.
In total, the cafe was targeted three times within a span of a few months, raising concerns over the safety of the establishment and the people associated with it.
During the third incident, the cafe was closed to customers, but two employees were present inside. Fortunately, both escaped unharmed. The attackers fired multiple rounds, leaving the glass windows and parts of the building riddled with bullet holes.
Videos of the shooting incidents also surfaced on social media and went viral, drawing widespread attention to the attacks.
The latest arrests mark a significant development in the investigation into the repeated shootings targeting the comedian’s Canadian business.
