Lawrence Bishnoi gang’s threat to Bihar MP: Tracking you, stay away from Salman case

Independent MP Pappu Yadav from Bihar’s Purnia has reportedly received a death threat allegedly linked to gangster Lawrence Bishnoi gang.

The caller claimed to be closely monitoring Yadav’s movements, threatening to kill him if he did not heed warnings to stay away from issues involving actor Salman Khan. The caller allegedly claimed that Lawrence Bishnoi was paying Rs 1 lakh per hour to disable jail signal jammers, allowing him to establish direct communication with Yadav, who had reportedly ignored those calls.

Lawrence Bishnoi recently came into the spotlight again following the murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique in Mumbai. In response to Siddique’s murder, Yadav had openly challenged Bishnoi, declaring that if allowed, he would dismantle the network of “a two-bit criminal like Lawrence Bishnoi” within 24 hours.

In a recorded audio message, the caller can be heard saying, “You could have told ‘bhai’ that the media did this, not me. Settle the matter as soon as possible. I considered you an elder brother, and you’ve embarrassed me. Call back, and I’ll connect you with ‘bhai.’”

Yadav reported the threat to Bihar’s Director General of Police (DGP), urging immediate action.

Condemning Baba Siddique’s murder, Yadav labelled it a disgrace, stating on X that the killing of a government-backed former minister highlighted “total lawlessness” in Maharashtra. He further remarked, “The murder of Bihar’s son, Baba Siddique, is extremely tragic. If the BJP-led government cannot protect its influential leaders, what hope is there for ordinary people?”

During a press conference that followed, Yadav grew visibly frustrated when journalists asked about Lawrence Bishnoi, reminding them, “I’ve already told you not to ask irrelevant questions here.” A video of him losing his temper during the exchange has since gone viral.
