Honey Trap! This Is How Mumbai Police Caught Lawrence Bishnoi Gang Shooter Sukha, A Big Threat To Salman Khan

Navi Mumbai Police have apprehended Sukhbir Balbir Singh, also known as Sukha, a significant figure in the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. He was reportedly involved in a plot to assassinate Bollywood star Salman Khan. The arrest occurred at a hotel in Panipat on Wednesday night, where police used a woman to lure him into a trap.

Sukha is suspected of having played an essential role in orchestrating an attack on Salman Khan earlier this year. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang, notorious for its criminal activities, has been under scrutiny for allegedly planning to kill Khan using firearms smuggled from Pakistan.

Undercover Operation

To capture Sukha, police devised an undercover operation involving a young woman who gained his trust over time. According to Dainik Jagran, she contacted him on Wednesday, claiming to be drunk and staying at the Abhinandan Hotel in Panipat. She sent him her location and urged him to visit.

Initially wary of being set up for arrest, Sukha questioned the woman's intentions. However, she assured him and hinted at a potential reward for meeting her. After some hesitation, he agreed to meet her, unaware that Mumbai Police officers were stationed nearby.

Police Raid and Arrest

As Sukha and the woman shared drinks in the hotel room, Mumbai Police raided the premises and arrested him. This operation was the result of months of surveillance and coordination among various law enforcement agencies, including Navi Mumbai police.

The arrest is considered a significant breakthrough in the investigation into the Lawrence Bishnoi gang's alleged plot against Salman Khan. The gang had reportedly planned to use powerful weapons like AK-47s and M16 rifles smuggled from Pakistan for the attack.

Connections Uncovered

Investigators have found evidence linking Sukha to Goldy Brar, a gangster based in the United States, along with other key figures within the Bishnoi network. This arrest follows Navi Mumbai police's earlier detention of five other Bishnoi gang members in June.

The detained individuals were accused of conducting reconnaissance at Khan's home and Panvel farmhouse. These arrests are part of ongoing efforts to dismantle the gang's operations and prevent any further threats against Salman Khan.

Khan had informed police that he believed the Lawrence Bishnoi gang was responsible for firing shots at his residence with intentions to harm him and his family. His statement is included in the charge sheet filed by Mumbai police regarding this incident.
