The Crime Branch of Mumbai Police has begun the extradition process to bring back Anmol Bishnoi, the younger brother of notorious gangster Lawrence Bishnoi wanted in the firing case outside actor Salman Khan’s house, from the US.
A special court for cases pertaining to the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) has issued a non-bailable warrant for the Bishnoi’s arrest, said police sources.
The crime branch started the extradition process reportedly after the US alerted his presence in the country.
The National Investigation Agency – India’s anti-terror agency – had added Anmol Bishnoi to its most-wanted list last month. A reward of Rs 10 lakh was also announced for his arrest.
Two men on a bike opened fire outside Salman Khan’s Bandra house in April allegedly to scare the actor who is on the Bishnoi gang’s “hit list”. Besides Anmol Bishnoi, Lawrence Bishnoi and Canada-based gangster Goldie Brar were named as accused in the case.
