Kapil Sharma’s newly opened Kap’s Cafe in Surrey, Canada, was recently targeted in a gunfire attack, prompting the establishment to release a heartfelt statement acknowledging the incident and thanking supporters.
Cafe’s Emotional Response
Just a day after the shocking gunfire incident, Kap’s Cafe took to Instagram to share a powerful message with its community. The cafe staff expressed profound gratitude for the outpouring of support and kind words received during this challenging time.
Their message conveyed a sense of heartbreak but also resilience: “We opened Kap’s Cafe with hopes of bringing warmth, community, and joy through delicious coffee and friendly conversation. To have violence intersect with that dream is heartbreaking. We are processing this shock, but we are not giving up.”
The cafe also thanked the Surrey, British Columbia police department for their swift action and continued support. They emphasized their commitment to standing firm against violence, hoping to maintain Kap’s Cafe as a welcoming community hub.
Details of the Incident
The attack occurred on Wednesday night, around 1:50 a.m., when the cafe premises were hit by gunfire. Police responded promptly to the scene following the incident.
Reports indicate that a total of eight shots were fired at the cafe. Initially, the motive behind the attack was unclear as investigations began.
Terror Group Claims Attack
In a disturbing development, Harjit Singh Laddi, a member of the banned terror group Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), claimed responsibility for the attack. Laddi stated that the shooting was a consequence of some comments Kapil Sharma had made regarding Nihangs.
Looking Forward
Launched just a week prior by Kapil Sharma and his wife, Ginni Chatrath, Kap’s Cafe is still in its nascent stages. An incident of this nature can undoubtedly instill fear among potential customers and impact its early operations.
Despite Kapil Sharma’s busy schedule with the return of “The Great Indian Kapil Show” on Netflix, both he and Ginni will be hoping for a quick recovery and that the cafe can soon return to full capacity.
