Three aides of gangster Lawrence
Bishnoi were arrested from Jodhpur by a team of the district police.
Their interrogation has revealed that a deputy jail superintendent and a
youth leader were on their hit list.
“Their detailed questioning will be done once they reached Patiala. But we have got some serious details after their initial grilling,” said SP (Investigation) Harvinder Virk.
The police have recovered imported weapons, a
car and some cash from them. An FIR has been registered against them at
Rajpura police station.
According to the sources, they were targeting a deputy jail superintendent as the officer had dealt strictly with Bishnoi inside the jail. A youth leader who recently came to limelight after facing allegations was also on their radar.
Lawrence was last week taken to Jodhpur from Faridkot on production
warrant in a murder case. He was produced in the court on Friday where
he had reportedly threatened to kill actor Salman Khan.
