Mumbai Police initiate extradition of Lawrence Bishnoi's brother Anmol in Baba Siddique, Salman Khan cases
PTC News Desk: US authorities have informed the Mumbai Police about the presence of Anmol Bishnoi, the younger brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, on American soil, according to Indian Express.
Acting quickly, the Mumbai Police have begun the process of extraditing Anmol Bishnoi, 25, who is charged in several high-profile incidents, including a firing incident outside Bollywood actor Salman Khan's home, according to reports.
Last month, Mumbai Police filed a petition in a special court requesting permission to initiate extradition proceedings. On October 16, they informed the court that they intended to bring Anmol Bishnoi back to India to face charges, notably in the Salman Khan case.
According to a top police official, Anmol Bishnoi has been accused of orchestrating many operations on behalf of his elder brother Lawrence Bishnoi, who is now being lodged in Gujarat's Sabarmati jail.
In October, the National Investigation Agency announced a Rs 10 lakh reward for information leading to the arrest of Anmol Bishnoi.
Anmol Bishnoi, who is wanted by the NIA for his alleged involvement in a shooting incident outside actor Salman Khan's Mumbai home in April, has also been added to the anti-terrorist agency's most wanted list.
