According to the first chargesheet filed by the Punjab police in the Moosewala murder case, Goldy Brar is the one who actually 'hatched the conspiracy and executed the plan to kill Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala'. As per the details that emerged from the Punjab police's chargesheet, after receiving information that the Punjab Government has scaled down the security for Moosewala, Goldy Brar in May, had asked the shooters to "assassinate Moosewala at the earliest".

The Canada-based gangster on May 28, reportedly passed on the information that the security of Moosewala has been trimmed and conveyed to the sharp-shooters who were selected for the killing of Moosewala to rush to Punjab's Mansa and execute the plan of killing the Punjabi singer. Though the shooters were not there in Mansa, on May 29, everything including weapons and cars was provided to them, the chargesheet further reveals.

As per the chargesheet, the role of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi in the Sidhu Moosewala murder case was to provide logistic support to some of the shooters.
