In a new twist to the ongoing investigation of the murder of Nationalist Congress Party leader Baba Siddique, the main shooter, Shiv Kumar Gautam, has admitted that he had direct communication with the notorious gangster Lawrence Bishnoi before killing him. The Crime Branch interrogated Gautam during which he narrated shocking facts about his connection with Bishnoi gang and all the promises they made to him in case he is arrested.

Shooter’s Confession: Ties with Lawrence Bishnoi

Gautam, who has been arrested from Bahraich in Uttar Pradesh, said he had been chatting online with Lawrence Bishnoi, the main man of the notorious Bishnoi gang while he was staying in Pune. Gautam said that Bishnoi had told him that he was not worried if he would be caught by the police after killing Baba Siddique. Gautam said that Bishnoi had told him that he would get him out of jail in a few days and had even given him ₹12 lakh as advance payment.

A Gangster’s Assurance: Release and Relocation

The confession further revealed that Bishnoi had guaranteed Gautam’s release using his powerful network of lawyers, emphasizing that the shooter would be free within a few days after his arrest. Moreover, Bishnoi promised to arrange for Gautam’s relocation abroad once he was released, ensuring his safety and continued protection under the gang’s influence.

This revelation marks the first mention of Lawrence Bishnoi’s involvement in the high-profile murder case, significantly expanding the scope of the investigation.

Brainwashing and Indoctrination: A Disturbing Trend

According to a Crime Branch official, the confession sheds light on the extent of brainwashing and indoctrination by the Bishnoi gang. Even after his arrest, Shiv Kumar Gautam reportedly displayed no fear or remorse for his actions. His continued belief that he will be released soon indicates the deep hold the gang has over him.

The official noted that Gautam seemed oblivious to the long-term consequences of his actions, demonstrating the dangerous influence of the criminal network.

Investigation into the Larger Conspiracy

Authorities are now focusing their efforts on unraveling the full extent of Lawrence Bishnoi’s criminal network. The Crime Branch is delving deeper into the conspiracy behind Baba Siddique’s murder, hoping to uncover more details about the gang’s operations and connections.

Additionally, Sumit Wagh, the 26th accused in the case, has been produced before court and remanded into judicial custody, as the investigation continues to unfold.

As the investigation progresses, the police are intensifying their focus on Lawrence Bishnoi’s links to other criminal activities and the broader implications of his criminal empire. The case has taken a dramatic turn, and authorities are working tirelessly to bring those responsible for Siddique’s murder to justice.
