Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang rival shoots eight times at businessman’s Delhi home, video goes viral

Days after jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s rival fired shots at the home of a Delhi businessman, CCTV footage of the incident has emerged.

The shooting took place on October 26 in Delhi’s Rani Bagh area by two men allegedly associated with the Bambiha gang.

CCTV footage emerged after An extortion demand of Rs 15 crore has come to light.

The footage shows two men approaching the businessman’s residence: one on foot, the other on a motorcycle.

One of the attackers was seen throwing a note inside, marked “Bambiha Gang” and with an international phone number. Moments later, the man fired several shots while his companion waited on a motorcycle. The perpetrator was reported to have used his mobile flashlight to film the scene.

A gangster named Pawan Shokin, based in the United States, is believed to have ordered the attack on the orders of Kaushal Chaudhary. According to police sources, the militants sent the recording to Pawan Shokin. Kaushal Chaudhary, who is on Lawrence Bishnoi’s list of offenders, is currently lodged in Gurugram jail.

Amid criticism of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang following the murder of NCP leader and former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique last month, this latest incident is suspected to be a result of gang rivalry. According to India today Kaushal Chaudhary’s Bambiha gang was reportedly targeting Delhi-NCR businessmen and demanding large extortions to fund their operations against Bishnoi’s associates. This Delhi incident occurred after Bishnoi announced his intention to kill Chaudhary. Consequently, both gangs are working to strengthen their networks.

Both the shooters, who hail from Uttar Pradesh, were arrested by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police two days later. It’s about an ongoing rivalry between two gangs. Foreign gang leaders are using intimidation and extortion to expand their influence, authorities say. They typically recruit local shooters to carry out attacks, record them and distribute the videos on social media.
