It's been one year since the renowned singer-actor died in a tragic incident. Today is the first death anniversary of Sidhu Moose Wala, and in memory of the Punjabi artist, several candle marches and Paaths have been organised all over the world.

Gangsters killed Sidhu Moose Wala on May 29 last year. Gangster Lawrence took responsibility for this and the conspiracy orchestrated by the Canada-based gangster Goldie Brar.
 
The Punjab Police has been accused of 35 individuals in this case, and only four out of 35 have been identified so far, reported PTC news.

To pay tribute to her son, Sidhu Moose Wala's mother, Charan Kaur,  kneeled and offered her salute out of respect at the exact location where his son was killed last year.

In one of her recent interviews, Charan Kaur recalled the event in the TOI interview and said, "We could never have imagined that it would turn out to be my son's last ride."

"We are learning to live with his memories and have only one mission in life to get justice for our son," she added.
