Ransom was demanded from Punjabi businessman Harjit Singh Dhadda, who was shot dead in broad daylight in Mississauga on Wednesday. This has been revealed by his family. His daughter Gurleen Dhadda said that a ransom of $500,000 was demanded from her father but he refused.
Gurleen said that her father said that he would not give a single penny. At the same time, Peel police did not confirm this claim but the victim's family says that they had reported the threats to the police and the police did not take it seriously.
Gurleen said that my father was shot dead in broad daylight because our government and the police failed to provide him with security. Meanwhile, Peel police said that they are investigating the matter from every angle.
However, there is no information about the suspects yet, but reports suggest that a black Dodge Challenger approached Dhaddah and 15 to 16 shots were fired at him. Dhadda died shortly after being taken to the hospital.
