The investigation into the recent blast outside a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) school in Rohini, Delhi, has intensified as multiple agencies explore various leads, including a potential connection to gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Sources indicate that a threat message was disseminated via Telegram, warning officials that their family members could be targeted next. This cryptic message was posted by a previously unknown group operating under the pseudonym “Justice League India” (JLI), raising suspicions about its legitimacy.
The message referenced the word “hire,” leading investigators to consider whether it hinted at Bishnoi’s gang, known for its involvement in targeted killings, including those in Canada. This development follows the emergence of a Khalistani link, with agencies suspecting that the attack on the school was intended as a warning to security forces.
Multiple Angles Under Investigation
Authorities are scrutinizing the unusual timing and location of the blast, suggesting it was a deliberate attempt to intimidate law enforcement. The Telegram channel responsible for the threat has approximately 333 members, prompting agencies to request a response from Telegram regarding the matter.
Investigators are also examining a viral post from Khalistan-backed social media channels, which sought to connect the attack to an alleged revenge plot for the attempted assassination of Gurpatwant Singh Pannu. Additionally, the recent anti-Naxal operations in Chhattisgarh, where 38 Naxals were killed by CRPF forces, are being considered as a potential motive behind the blast.
Further examination of the blast site revealed a circuit loop pattern, commonly associated with attacks in Jammu and Kashmir. The National Security Guard’s Bomb Disposal Squad discovered cables and batteries used for a timing device, a method previously observed in the region.
A case has been registered under FIR No. 512/24, which includes charges of attempted murder, public property damage, and violations of the Explosives Act at the Prashant Vihar police station in Rohini.
