Two days ago, a 12-member jury found Sidhu and Bhatti guilty after a full day of deliberations, which began on Friday evening.

Justice Karen Horner delivered automatic life sentences to both, with no parole eligibility for at least 25 years.

Now, both Kaunka and Bhatti are appealing to Alberta’s top court to overturn their murder convictions.

“On Monday, both men filed notices of appeal, asking the province’s top court to overturn their convictions. The notices indicate an appeal based on arguments that there were errors in the judge’s instructions to jurors, and errors in allowing evidence that shouldn’t have been admitted that had “a significant prejudicial effect,” resulting in an “unreasonable verdict.” A date for appeal arguments has not been set.”

Prosecutors argued that Bhatti and Sidhu, along with a possible third man, Amandeep Saggu, were in the car during an ambush that led to the deaths of two local drug dealers in Alberta’s criminal underworld.

The motive behind the killings reveals just how far these gang conflicts have escalated. The incident stemmed from a love triangle involving the infamous Avneet Sidhu—allegedly engaged in two relationships at the same time. Images of Sidhu can be found in our website’s database.

Prosecutors contended that Mr. Saggu, feeling the need to eliminate the third party in the romantic entanglement, recruited Bhatti and Kaunka to carry out the murders on his behalf.

Keep in mind that Malhi was the one who initially made the first move, when he learned of Avneet’s relationship with Saggu back in 2016:

“Last year, Amandeep Saggu pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was handed a nearly-eight year sentence.  Saggu was the one who set up the killing, an act of revenge after he was stabbed by Malhi in 2016, according to facts agreed upon during his guilty plea.  Saggu admitted that he sent accomplices — now identified as Bhatti and Sidhu — to attack Malhi after WA tracked him down at the Mazaj lounge.“

It was his instructions that resulted in the double-homicide that night.

The infamous Abbotsford native, Kaunka, will now spend life behind bars alongside his co-accused, Bhatti. For many who have followed Kaunka and his case closely, this outcome was seen as inevitable.

However, one of the two surprises our team observed was how quickly both Sidhu and Bhatti filed appeals against their convictions. Their chances of success can’t be ruled out entirely, largely due to the case hinging on a sole witness and the confidence expressed by Kaunka’s legal team.

“This is a whodunit case,” said Kothari, Sidhu’s lawyer.

The potential for an overturned conviction stems primarily from the reliability—or lack thereof—of the witness testimony.

“A protected witness, who can only be identified by the pseudo-initials W.A., gave evidence suggesting Sidhu and Bhatti were in the sedan as it sped by Singh’s Mercedes in the Mazaj parking lot. But defence lawyers argued W.A. was not a credible witness and had reason to lie about their involvement. W.A. testified he saw a Nissan Altima known to be used by Saggu to sell drugs and chased after it in hopes of obtaining some cocaine. He said when he pulled up beside the car at 41st Avenue and 19th Street N.E. not far from the Mazaj lounge, Sidhu pointed a firearm at him and said he was lucky he didn’t get shot. The witness testified Bhatti was in the front passenger seat and Saggu, who was in the rear, instructed him to go to the lounge to confirm Malhi and Singh were present. which he did. A few minutes later, the sedan involved in the shooting moved into the parking lot outside the Mazaj and its occupants laid in wait for nearly 90 minutes before opening fire.”

The other surprise was how the two victims are now being confirmed as drug-dealers:

Jaskaran Singh Sidhu and Prabhjyot Bhatti each faced two charges of first-degree murder in the April 2019 deaths of known drug dealers Jasdeep Singh and Japneet Malhi.

The two victims, with Malhi’s girlfriend (magically had no bullets touch her), had entered Singh’s Mercedes SUV after leaving the Mazaj Restaurant and Lounge off Barlow Trail N.E. when a sedan pulled up in front of their vehicle and shots were fired from the passenger side.

A few months ago, Kaunka appeared to be well aware of his impending fate in the trial-by-jury. This was evident when it was alleged that he had recorded himself delivering a vicious beating to an enemy with ties to the Brothers Keepers.

Surprisingly, if the inmates are correctly identified as being the ones involved in the following footage – then the correctional system allowed both Amandeep Saggu and Jaskaran ‘Kaunka’ to be housed on the same range at the Drumheller Institution.

Originally a VIP submission, we have decided to upload this for everyone due to the serious delays and pause we have put on the flow of content. Keep in mind, none of the three alleged inmates have been identified. All allegations to date.

Following the release of the video, all individuals involved were relocated—either to different ranges or possibly to entirely separate institutions.

This wasn’t Saggu’s first experience in assaulting an inmate as well:

In reflecting on the conclusion of Kaunka and Bhatti’s trial, one thing has become clear: the underworld operates without loyalty. This case involved a double homicide where the lead orchestrator, Amandeep Saggu, will somehow walk free in the next two to three years.

For Kaunka, we hope this serves as a life lesson. Throughout his criminal career, he was known for his unwavering loyalty—whether it was selling drugs, shooting up enemy houses in British Columbia, or standing alongside his right-hand men, VP and Umba. He did whatever was required to serve his gang, earning his reputation as a loyal soldier. Now, however, he must face the consequences of that very lifestyle.

Bhatti, on the other hand, represents another tragedy: a once-educated and promising young man who threw away a bright future. Whether or not he truly “unleashed a hail of bullets with a sawed-off, semi-automatic rifle” remains open to interpretation. What he can be acknowledged for, however, is his refusal to betray Kaunka during the trial. He never turned on his co-accused, even when Saggu’s earlier testimony painted both gangsters as scapegoats.

In the end, Kaunka and Bhatti are left to bear the weight of their actions, while Saggu’s choices continue to cast a shadow over the case.

And after all, taking a picture like this after you kill two drug-dealers isn’t exactly the smartest idea:
