Overview
- The shooting outside Covo’s Gurdwara Mata Sahib Kaur Ji late Friday minutes before midnight left Raginder Singh and Gurmit Singh, both 48, dead as they left a Vaisakhi gathering.
- Carabinieri units from Bergamo and Treviglio are collecting witness statements, checking surveillance footage, and analyzing about 10 shell casings recovered at the scene.
- Investigators have ruled out a sudden brawl and are working on a planned hit as their main hypothesis, with the attacker approaching the victims and escaping in a vehicle.
- A witness said the shooter was an Indian man known at the gurdwara and that a third person was grazed by bullets, but officials have not verified these claims.
- The victims’ bodies were transferred to Pavia for autopsy, and local media say detectives are also examining possible tensions over the gurdwara’s centre management, with no confirmed motive or arrests.
