In a major crackdown, a team of the Bahadurgarh Special Task Force (STF) led by Inspector Vivek Malik arrested five notorious miscreants of Lawrence Bishnoi gang from Bahadurgarh, located on the Delhi-Haryana border. The team also recovered six stolen luxury cars from their possession.

 “Those who have been arrested include Chiraag, who is handling the drug trade of Bishnoi gang in South Haryana and is the younger brother of Tinu Bhiwani, already arrested in the Moosewala murder case. Other criminals are Manoj Bakkarwala, the famous car thief; Prakash Barmer, a resident of Barmer in Rajasthan; Amit of Pinjore, and Sanjay of Zirakpur Punjab,” informed Malik.

Malik maintained the STF team received specific input regarding the movement of the accused in Bahadurgarh. Acting swiftly, the team laid a trap near Bahadurgarh bypass and apprehended them, he added.

Sumit Kumar, Superintendent of Police, STF, said “All the above miscreants are active members of Lawrence Bishnoi gang who supply luxury vehicles and drugs for the gang. They also supply weapons to the gang in Delhi, Haryana and Punjab besides making extortion. Riding in stolen Innova and Scorpio vehicles, these miscreants had entered Haryana from Delhi side.”

 He claimed all arrested miscreants had been working for Lawrence Bishnoi and Kala Jathedi gangs for a long time. Bakkarwala and the rest of the miscreants came in contact with Lawrence Bishnoi and Sampat Nehra through the notorious gangster Tinu Bhiwani.

“During interrogation, Bakkarwala has also revealed that besides providing weapons and drugs to the Bishnoi gang, he has also been a habitual offender of stealing luxury cars and has so far stolen hundreds of luxury vehicles from different states of the country. He has been arrested many times and escaped by dodging the police. There are many cases registered against him in Delhi, Haryana, UP and Punjab.  In addition, he has been jailed for about 10 years till now,” said Sumit.

He said that the team of STF is also searching for other miscreants of this gang and raids are also being conducted in many places in this connection.
