The National Investigation Agency has announced a reward of Rs 10 lakh for the arrest of Anmol Bishnoi, brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.

Anmol was chargesheeted in two NIA cases registered in 2022 and a probe has revealed that he fled India on a fake passport. In April, Anmol took responsibility on Facebook for the firing outside actor Salman Khan’s house.

Anmol alias Bhanu had also allegedly provided weapons and logistics support to the accused who killed Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala on May 29, 2022. He has 18 cases registered against him, including those related to extortion.

The NIA is intensifying its search for Anmol due to his involvement in organised crime, and authorities have called on the public to share any information that could help in locating him. “The agency is also trying to gather Anmol’s voice samples from across the country to match it with some samples they have recovered. After collecting strong technical evidence, further procedures against him will take place,” an officer said.

He has been on a list of notorious gangsters prepared by the Union Home Ministry last year. In 2023, the NIA had filed a chargesheet against 14 people, including Lawrence and Anmol, charging them with criminal conspiracy to unleash a wave of terror and carry out targeted killings of well-known social and religious leaders, movie stars, singers and businessmen.

“Besides having links with conspirators in Pakistan, the accused were also in contact with pro-Khalistan elements based in Canada, Nepal and other countries,” the NIA had said in the chargesheet.
