North District General Patrol officers, assisted by members of the Tactical Support Team, reached at a residence in the 200 block of Hazelton Drive, where they found a deceased adult male victim, Winnipeg Police Service said in a statement.

The victim was taken to the hospital and the homicide unit started the investigation. No arrests have been made.

On Thursday, multiple Indian agencies corroborated reports of the death of wanted gangster Sukhdool Singh, alias Sukha Duneke, in Winnipeg, Canada. Sources say Duneke was shot dead by an unidentified assailant. Duneke’s death was also confirmed by his family in Punjab.

“His uncle and daughter here have given information about his death. We are authenticating the details. As per our record 15-16 cases are registered against him,” said Moga SSP J Elanchezhian.

Sukhdool Singh was murdered to avenge the killing of Gurlal Brar, a close relative of US-based gangster Goldy Brar, according to sources.
