Bishnoi Gang's Favourite Destination? What Delhi Salon Shooter Said

Members of the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang and other criminals who are wanted in India, flee to the US to hide, a sharpshooter of the Gogi gang who was arrested for killing two people in a salon in Delhi, told the police.

According to the accused, Harsh alias Chintu, the gangsters enter America with fake passports by donkey route (travelling from one place to another to migrate illegally).

Several gangsters including Goldy Brar, Anmol Bishnoi, Rohit Godara, Monty Mann, and Pawan Bishnoi are currently hiding in the US - who had reached there through the donkey route, the police said.

The 22-year-old accused was arrested on Thursday from the Delhi airport when he was returning to India to arrange for another fake passport, officials said.

The fake passport accessed by NDTV shows that Harsh's name was written as Pradeep Kumar and it was issued from Punjab's Jalandhar on March 26.

According to the police, Harsh left India on June 9, departing from Amritsar Airport to Sharjah before heading to Azerbaijan on August 27, where he remained for several months.

Delhi salon shooting incident

On February 9, two people, identified as Sonu Tehlan and Ashish Tehlan, were shot multiple times in front of other customers and workers. The attackers fled away after the attack immediately.

During the investigation, the accused were identified as Sanjeev Kumar alias Sanju Dahiya and Harsh - who were previously involved in criminal cases and declared proclaimed offenders. The police had also offered a reward of Rs 50,000 on their arrest.

The Crime Branch had issued a lookout circular against Harsh, who was allegedly motivated by suspicions that the victims were leaking information about him.

Harsh had been operating under the direction of gangster Yogesh alias Tunda, who had taken over the Gogi gang after its leader's murder. Harsh is also known to have been involved in extortion activities and had previously been arrested in connection with an extortion case in Alipur. He was also recently involved in threatening several businessmen in Delhi and demanding money in the name of gangster Yogesh, reported news agency PTI.
