Pune: Social Worker Receives Death Threats From Fake Facebook Account Allegedly Linked To Lawrence Bishnoi Gang
A 40-year-old social worker from Pune’s Salisbury Park area has filed a complaint with the Swargate police station, alleging that he received death threats from a fake Facebook account in the name of notorious gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.
According to the complaint, the accused, Sumitdada Ghule Patil, created a fake Facebook account and sent threatening messages to the social worker. Police suspect Patil may be linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
A case has been registered at the Swargate police station, and Senior Police Inspector Yuvraj Nandre is leading the investigation. The police are working to apprehend Patil and ensure the complainant’s safety.
The incident has raised concerns about the Lawrence Bishnoi gang’s presence in Pune, particularly after the gang claimed responsibility for NCP leader Baba Siddiqui’s murder in Mumbai. The recent detention of a suspect from Warje area by Mumbai Police has further highlighted the gang’s alleged activities in the region.
Lawrence Bishnoi, currently lodged in the Sabarmati Central Jail in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, has been linked to various crimes and threats, including against Bollywood actor Salman Khan.
