On March 4, 2026, Nancy Grewal was stabbed outside her home in the Windsor area of Ontario, Canada. Police received information late at night that a woman was seriously injured. Police and medical teams arrived at the crime scene and rushed her to the hospital, where she died during treatment. Nancy was found with 18 stab wounds. The incident caused a stir in the area.
A social media post claiming responsibility for the murder has been posted. The post reads, "Waheguru Ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji ki Fateh. The murder of Nancy Grewal in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, was committed by our brothers. I, Akash Harike, and Sukha Sandhu take responsibility for this. This woman spoke ill about religion and Khalistan, and she has suffered the consequences. We have no enmity with any religion, but anyone who speaks against religion like her will face the same fate."
This post was made on Instagram from an ID named "Akash Harike." The post also stated that Nancy Grewal had made statements against Khalistan and Sikhism, which led to the attack. However, there has been no official confirmation yet regarding the veracity of this post or the identity of the people involved.
Another social media post attributed responsibility for the murder to gangster Goldy Brar. Some posts claimed that the murder was carried out by individuals associated with a gangster network. However, police officials have not yet confirmed these claims and stated that various unverified rumors are circulating on social media.
According to investigating agencies, the motive for the murder is still unclear, and the police are investigating the case from all angles. Officials say that social media posts or claims of responsibility by individuals may be part of the investigation, but they cannot be considered the final truth. Police are also examining nearby CCTV footage, mobile records, and digital evidence.
Nancy Grewal was very active on social media and made videos on various issues related to Punjab and the expatriate Sikh community. She often criticized pro-Khalistan activities and certain organizations. According to the family, she had previously received threats and expressed concerns about her safety.

The family says that Nancy was an outspoken woman and spoke out on many sensitive issues. They say that the police should investigate this case seriously and arrest the real culprits soon.
Canadian police have appealed to the public to share any information or CCTV footage related to the incident with investigating agencies. Officials have also advised people to avoid unverified news circulating on social media and not to jump to conclusions until the investigation is complete.
Originally from Narang village in Ludhiana, Nancy's real name was Monipreet. She changed both her name and school without informing her family. Nancy began singing at jagratas and stage shows since childhood. In 2015, she moved to Canada to study nursing and married an engineer, but they divorced shortly thereafter.
After becoming active on social media, Nancy criticized the Nihangs as well as radical Khalistanis in her videos. Her mother said that Nancy called those who spread hatred in the name of religion "wolves." She responded strongly to abusers on social media. Perhaps this is why she became a thorn in the side of extremists.
