Unidentified assailants opened fire at the private residence of the newly elected Cricket Canada president Arvinder Khosa in Surrey early Wednesday morning. The targeted shooting occurred just days after a court-ordered leadership vote placed him in charge of the administration, generating significant concerns regarding safety and the internal integrity of the sport domestically.
The dynamic incident took place at approximately forty minutes past four in the morning within the Newton neighbourhood whilst the property was fully occupied. Local law enforcement authorities arrived swiftly at the scene to initiate emergency security procedures and evaluate the immediate property damage.
“An individual associated to the residence that was shot this morning has received extortion related threats,” a Surrey Police media relations officer confirmed to CBC’s Fifth Estate via email.
The exterior structure of the property sustained considerable damage from the rapid discharge of firearms during the early morning assault. Investigative teams have spent hours documenting the ballistic impact points across the main entryways of the suburban home.
According to reporting published by the CBC, at least five bullet holes could be seen in the door, windows and exterior of Khosa's home. Fortunately, no domestic injuries or physical casualties were reported by emergency responders following the attack.
The violent confrontation develops amid historical public reporting connecting the domestic cricket administration to the activities of regional criminal operations. Intelligence briefings suggest that external pressure networks have frequently been deployed to influence key sporting appointments.
An earlier investigative documentary broadcast by the Fifth Estate revealed that Khosa was connected to local players, who are allegedly part of the Bishnoi gang and also threatened a national team player in 2025.
The current administration is simultaneously navigating serious accusations from the International Cricket Council regarding match manipulation and illicit fiscal management. The global governing body has recently initiated punitive measures, halting all standard development funding allocation pipelines to the country.
Former head coach Khurram Chohan was implicated in an ongoing inquiry after a recorded phone call emerged online. During the call, he alleged that a few board members forced him to select national team players and that there were attempts to fix games.
