The dramatic return of anmol bishnoi to India has triggered major discussions in legal and crime circles. Deported from the United States on November 18, he landed in Delhi on Wednesday, where he was taken into custody by a National Investigation Agency (NIA) team moments after arrival. This development marks a crucial breakthrough for agencies pursuing him for years, especially in cases linked to violent conspiracies and high-profile attacks involving the Bishnoi syndicate. The proceedings began immediately after his landing, and he was moved to Patiala House Court for formalities related to ongoing investigations, cementing the spotlight once again on anmol bishnoi.
News agency ANI released the first visuals showing anmol bishnoi being escorted by NIA officers. Though photographed from behind, the image confirmed that Indian agencies now have direct access to one of the country’s most wanted fugitives, accused in at least 18 criminal cases.
A Long List of Serious Allegations
Among the cases against him are conspiracy charges in the attempted murder of former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique, alleged involvement in the killing of Punjabi rapper Sidhu Moose Wala, and purported ties to the firing near actor Salman Khan’s residence. His growing profile within the Bishnoi gang reportedly made him a key conspirator in several coordinated plots.
Earlier in the day, his cousin Ramesh Bishnoi publicly appealed to the government to ensure anmol bishnoi’s safety, claiming he was being punished solely for being Lawrence Bishnoi’s younger brother. He insisted the family “respects the law” and is prepared to cooperate.
A Fugitive’s Trail Across Countries
Investigators revealed that anmol bishnoi escaped India in 2021 using a forged passport. He allegedly moved across Nepal, Dubai, and Kenya before reaching the United States, where he was last seen publicly at an event in California in April 2023. His arrest earlier this year initiated the deportation process that finally concluded this week.
