In a major development for Indian law enforcement, US authorities have alerted the Mumbai Police to the presence of Anmol Bishnoi, the younger brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, on American soil.

Acting swiftly, the Mumbai Police have started the process to extradite Anmol Bishnoi, 25, who is implicated in a series of high-profile cases, including a shooting incident outside Bollywood actor Salman Khan’s residence. Last month, Mumbai Police had filed a petition in a special court seeking permission to begin extradition proceedings. On October 16, they informed the court of their intent to bring Anmol Bishnoi back to India to face charges, particularly in the Salman Khan case.

A senior police official told the newspaper that that Anmol Bishnoi has been implicated in orchestrating several operations on behalf of his elder brother Lawrence Bishnoi, who is currently lodged in Gujarat’s Sabarmati jail. NIA’s ₹10 lakh reward for information on Anmol Bishnoi
