Mumbai police begin proceedings after US alert about Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother – India TV

Following an alert from US authorities about Anmol Bishnoi’s presence in America, Mumbai police have initiated extradition proceedings for the younger brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Anmol, 25, has been involved in several high-profile cases, including a shooting incident outside the home of Bollywood star Salman Khan.

Extradition request submitted to the court

The Mumbai Police last month filed an application to bring Anmol Bishnoi back to India. Particularly in Salman Khan’s case, the court was informed on October 16 about the ongoing efforts after the allegations came to light.

Background and criminal charges

Anmol Bishnoi is accused of organizing various criminal activities for Lawrence Bishnoi, who is currently in jail in Gujarat. The two brothers have been accused of committing serious crimes such as the shooting outside Salman Khan’s house and the recent murder of former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique.

NIA places Anmol on their most wanted list

In October, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) placed Anmol on its most wanted list after he announced a reward of Rs 10 lakh for information leading to his arrest. Bishnoi is believed to travel regularly across the US and Canada and is being closely monitored by Indian authorities.
