Rahul Fazilpuria Targeted in Intense Gunfire
Rahul narrowly escaped the attack, but the incident evoked memories of Sidhu Moosewala’s death on social media. The exact location of the shooting remains unclear, although it’s being reported that the incident took place on the Badshahpur SPR (Southern Peripheral Road) near Gurugram. The identity of the attackers and their motive remain unknown.
Who is Rahul Fazilpuria?
Rahul Yadav, also known as Rahul Fazilpuria, is a well-known YouTuber and a close friend of Elvish Yadav, the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 2. Both were involved in a controversy in 2023 concerning the alleged use of snake venom at a rave party. In 2024, Fazilpuria gained further attention when he received a Gurugram ticket from Ajay Singh Chautala’s JJP party, though he ultimately lost the election. He has a significant social media following, boasting 1.2 million followers on Instagram.
Fazilpuria Speeds Away After Hearing Gunfire
During the attack, the rapper was travelling in his white Thar vehicle. Assailants in another car opened fire from behind. Upon realising the danger, the singer sped away in his Thar, escaping unharmed. Police arrived at the scene immediately after receiving reports of the incident.
Gurugram Police Investigating the Case
Gurugram police have launched an investigation and search operation to apprehend the attackers. Police officials stated that they received reports of gunfire on the SPR road approximately an hour prior. The Gurugram police’s crime scene team is currently on site conducting investigations. Reports suggest that the STF received intelligence a few days earlier about potential attacks on singers. This intelligence is now part of the ongoing investigation. Concerns are being raised that the incident could have resulted in Fazilpuria’s death, similar to the case of Sidhu Moosewala a few years ago.
