The Killing Call

It was a killing that shocked India: Punjabi hip-hop legend Sidhu Moose Wala shot dead by hired hitmen in the pay of gangsters. Three years after the murder, BBC Eye investigates how one of India’s biggest music stars found himself on the wrong side of the country’s most feared gang — and asks the fugitive gangster who says he ordered the hit: why did he want Moose Wala dead?
