Sask. Party says bullet holes found in window of Regina campaign office

Oct 22, 2024 | 12:23 PM

The Saskatchewan Party says one of its Regina candidates has been in touch with the police after two bullet holes were discovered in the window of his campaign office.

According to a statement from the party, the bullet holes were found in the window of Rahul Singh’s campaign office. Singh, who is running in Regina Northeast, said the matter is now under investigation by law enforcement.

“Our campaign has already had many signs stolen but this goes well beyond that, putting our campaign volunteers in danger,” Singh said in a statement.

“I have reported this attack to the Regina Police Service and they are now investigating.”

The Regina Police Service confirmed that it has launched an investigation. While the bullet holes were discovered at a campaign office during an election campaign, there is no indication whether the attack was politically motivated or random in nature.

Sask. Party leader Scott Moe said it is “unacceptable” for any candidate in any party to be the target of intimidation.

“I spoke to Rahul this morning,” Moe said in a statement.

“I know he is troubled by this but he will not be intimidated. He has knocked thousands of doors and spoken with thousands of voters in Regina Northeast and that’s exactly what he plans to continue doing from now until Election Day.”

Saskatchewan’s provincial election is set for October 28.
