S2024E26 - Lindt Siege: Untold Story / Tik Tok Killer

The man who killed the Lindt Cafe terrorist can now be identified, 10 yrs on.

Western Sydney mother-of-two Kirandeep Saggar met her boyfriend on TikTok. Then he killed her father.

It all began with a seemingly innocent exchange on the social media app in 2023, when Kirandeep responded to a message from Indian-Canadian rapper Ranjit Bath.

The pair quickly began dating, but their relationship soon became one of obsession. Ranjit began to stalk Kirandeep and when she refused to marry him, things turned deadly.

This Sunday at 7.00pm on Channel 7 and 7plus, 7NEWS Spotlight presents an exclusive global investigation into a killer on the run – and exposes a major flaw in the communication between global law enforcement agencies.

7NEWS reporter Natasha Squarey travels to British Columbia, Canada, to track down the fugitive killer who continues to terrorise Kirandeep.

The 7NEWS Spotlight crew also heads to India to question authorities on how they have let Ranjit Bath get away with it.

The program features former West Vancouver Police Chief Kash Heed, who warns that the ongoing failure of police in India and Canada in arresting Ranjit is putting Kirandeep's life at risk.

Kirandeep tells Natasha that Ranjit threatens her daily, saying he will kill her and her family next.

"He killed my father. My biggest fear now is he can come and kill me anytime because he's free," she says.

"I feel hopeless because I have proof, I have all the records which show he did that but still the police are not doing anything."
