A statement allegedly from the Rohit Godra–Goldy Brar gang has circulated online claiming responsibility for a shooting at the residence of a relative of Bollywood actress Disha Patani in Bareilly. The post, written in Hindi and attributed to individuals identifying themselves as Virendra Charan and Mahendra Saran (Delana), also issued direct threats to members of the film industry. The message cites alleged insults to certain religious figures and Sanātan Dharma as justification, warns that the incident was “only a trailer,” and threatens lethal retaliation against anyone in the entertainment industry who disrespects their religion or saints. The note explicitly states: “Next time… we will not leave anyone alive from their home,” framing the act as part of a wider campaign to “protect” their faith. Anurag Arya, SSP Bareilly, provided details of the police response: “Yesterday at 3.30 pm, two unknown attackers came to the house of retired CO Jagdish Patni and informed about the firing incident. Along with the SPCT, the teams of SOG West Orleans were sent on the spot. After the incident, an FIR is being filed at the police station in severe conditions with a request letter.” He added that “to ensure the safety of the family, sufficient armed police force has been deployed. Five teams have been prepared for the investigation of the SPCT West Orleans crime, which will ensure the arrest of the perpetrators of the incident. The police will take the strictest action against those who are involved in the incident. They have been assured of their safety by meeting my family. The five teams will be deployed continuously to ensure that the motive behind the incident is clear. The strictest action against those who are involved in the incident will be ensured.” The online circulation of the threatening message has triggered concern among residents and social media users. While the post claims the attack was carried out by the Rohit Godra–Goldy Brar network, authorities have not yet officially confirmed this or verified all details in the note.
