Two accused charged in firing at Kapil Sharma's cafe in Canada

Canadian police have filed criminal charges against two young men in connection with the shooting at comedian Kapil Sharma's cafe in Surrey and another firing incident at a different location.

According to the British Columbia Provincial Extortion Task Force, the accused have been identified as 22-year-old Pardeep Singh and 22-year-old Sabeer Khan. Both were arrested from Surrey on November 1 and remain in custody.

According to the RCMP, two counts of careless use of a firearm have been laid against both accused. One of these charges relates to the shooting at the cafe and the other to an attack on a residential home.

Investigation officials stated that shots were fired at 'Caps Cafe' located on 120th Street in Surrey on October 16, 2025. The cafe was closed at the time of the incident, but two employees were present inside and escaped unhurt.

Four days prior to this incident, on October 12, 2025, a house located on 103A Avenue was also targeted in a shooting, during which a woman was injured. After links between both incidents came to light, the investigation was handed over to the task force.

RCMP Chief Superintendent Duncan Pound stated that this action was taken following over a year of investigation, search warrants, and the analysis of evidence. He said that police agencies are working in coordination to curb extortion and violent incidents.

Nothing has yet been proved in court.
