Vancouver – A Vancouver Police investigation has led to the arrest of a suspect in the 2018 murder of a Granville Street nightclub promoter.
Kalwinder Thind, 23, was stabbed and killed outside Cabana Lounge on the morning of January 27, 2018, after an altercation that started between two groups inside the club spilled out to the street. Police believe Thind attempted to intervene when he was killed around 2:30 a.m.
Several people fled following the stabbing, including the suspect, who was not on scene when VPD officers arrived. VPD appealed for witnesses, reviewed video, and ultimately secured sufficient evidence to identify and subsequently arrest the suspect.
On May 28, the BC Prosecution Service approved one count of second-degree murder against 28-year-old Sukhjit Sidhu, a New Westminster resident. Sidhu was arrested that same day by VPD homicide investigators.
He remains in custody.
