    New Delhi: Delhi’s Patiala House Court on Monday granted transit custody of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi to the Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) in connection with a cross-border smuggling case.

    The agency wants to question Bishnoi about any possible ties to Pakistan because it believes there is a chance that his associates are involved in cross-border smuggling of drugs and weapons.

    The National Investigation Agency (NIA) had already zeroed in on Bishnoi for his possible links to anti-Indian elements in Pakistan.

    Bishnoi was also involved in cross-border drugs trafficking and a Nigerian woman was working for him, claimed the Gujarat ATS, which now wants to interrogate the gangster in connection with the Al-Tayyasa boat matter in which 38.994 kg heroin worth Rs 194.97 crore was recovered from the Mitha Port in Gujarat.

    “Six Pakistani nationals who were on board the boat were held. Later, it was learnt that the consignment was sent for Bishnoi by Pakistan-based handlers under the supervision of a Nigerian woman. Calls were made from Punjab jail. While two of the accused have been interrogated, we want to quiz Bishnoi for which his production warrant is being sought,” a source said earlier.

    Mumbai: Mumbai Police on Saturday booked jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi in connection with a death threat to Rajya Sabha MP and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut.

    “A case has been registered under sections 506(2) and 504 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) against Lawrence Bishnoi at Kanjur Marg police station in Mumbai in connection with a death threat to Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut,” Mumbai Police said.

    Earlier in the day, Raut had filed a written complaint after he allegedly received a threat message from Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang mentioning that he would be killed like Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala in Delhi.

    “I got a threat message and I have informed the police. I won’t be scared. Similar attempts were made to carry an attack on me but what did the police do, what did the state’s home minister do?” he said.

    Later, a man in Pune was detained by the police in this regard.

    Mumbai Police said that the detainee used Lawrence Bishnoi’s name and his connection with the gangster will be probed.

    “The accused person who was detained in Pune related to a threat message to Sanjay Raut used the name of Lawrence Bishnoi. He will also be interrogated related to the threat message to actor Salman Khan. The accused’s connection with the Bishnoi gang will also be probed,” Mumbai Police said.

    Earlier, a threat was also received by Bollywood actor Salman Khan stating that he will “end up like Sidhu Moosewala”. The accused, Dhakad Ram who is a resident of Luni in the Jodhpur district of Rajasthan, was arrested and handed over to Mumbai Police.

    “In the case registered in Bandra police station of threats to kill Salman Khan via email, the Mumbai police team and Luni police team in joint action caught Dhakad Ram, a resident of Luni in Jodhpur district,” Luni Police Station Officer, Jodhpur Ishwar Chand Pareek had told ANI earlier.

    Last week, Mumbai Police booked jailed gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi, Goldie Brar and Rohit Garg for allegedly sending threatening emails to actor Salman Khan’s office. Bandra Police registered a case under sections 506(2),120(b) and 34 of IPC.

    Salman Khan was provided with Y+ category security by the Mumbai Police. The Maharashtra government took this step after the actor received a threat letter from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang earlier.

    Chandigarh: Two minor girls influenced by Lawrence Bishnoi on social media ran away from their homes in Delhi, reached Bathinda and clicked selfies outside the jail where the gangster is lodged, officials said on Friday.

    The girls came by train and reached the central jail in Bathinda on Wednesday, a police official said.

    The jail authorities informed the police when they found the duo clicking selfies.

    Investigations revealed that the girls were influenced by Bishnoi on social media, the official said.

    “Their parents were called. The girls were counselled and handed over to their parents,” Deputy Superintendent of Police (Bathinda) Gurpreet Singh said.

    The girls lied to their parents, who hail from Jharkhand, and travelled to Bathinda, the police said.

    Bishnoi is one of the accused in the killing of singer Sidhu Moosewala.

    Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead in Mansa district last May.

    Goldy Brar, a member of Bishnoi’s gang, had claimed responsibility for the murder.
