JALANDHAR: Mother of Punjabi social media influencer Nancy Grewal, 45, who was murdered in LaSalle, Ontario, Canada, alleged that three persons could be involved in her murder, and named them. Speaking to the media at her Deol Nagar residence in Jalandhar, her mother, Shinderpal Kaur, said that she regularly received threats and she informed the police there. She said that her house also burnt a few months back.Nancy regularly spoke on different issues, often using acrimonious language. While she spoke against Khalistanis, both living in India and in other countries, and political leaders, she often commented on current issues. In recent weeks, she posted videos against Radha Soami Satsang Beas chief Baba Gurinder Singh Dhillon, after he called on Akali leader Bikram Singh Majithia in Nabha jail a few weeks back. Like other videos, she used some strong epithets against the dera chief as well. Some time back, she also spoke against Akal Takht jathedar.Shinderpal alleged that the main conspirator, an old man, was involved in a local gurdwara in Windsor, Ontario. She alleged that one of the three came to her house earlier with his face covered for the purpose of recce. “She had CCTV cameras in and outside her house. Once Nancy spotted him, he was badly frightened. If there were no CCTV cameras, she could have been killed on that day also,” she alleged.“Lately, she was raising an issue of gold belonging to a man who died there and hailed from Phagwara. She was threatened that she should stop raising the issue, but she remained firm on helping that man’s family. She also insisted that the particular gurdwara there should have CCTV cameras, to which some people objected,” Shinderpal alleged.She said that Nancy worked as a caregiver, with two shifts a day, with 2 companies. “She shared with me everything, from her experience with patients to the threats she faced and complaints she made to the police. That is the reason I am fully aware of those who nursed grudges against her,” she said.“She was keen to speak the truth on different issues and often tried to help the poor or those seeking justice. I said that if she got satisfaction from speaking the truth, she should carry on,” she said.“When I got up, I checked her CCTV cameras to see if she was back. She did not take my calls on March 3, and then we contacted the police there and came to know what happened to her. She was stabbed repeatedly and very badly. The woman, to whose house she went, spotted that she was being attacked and she informed the police,” Shinderpal said.She said that Nancy went to Canada after her marriage to a singer who lived there. She wanted a career in singing but could not make it and anchored stage shows. “Though it was the boy who sought her hand in marriage, after reaching there they fell out after some time and she had to fend for herself,” she said.LaSalle Police service had on Wednesday evening posted, “Shortly before 9:30 p.m. on March 3, 2026, emergency services responded to the 2400 block of Todd Lane for a report of a stabbing. A 45-year-old female was located with injuries. She was transported by Essex-Windsor Emergency Medical Services to the hospital where she later succumbed to her injuries.
