Baba Siddique murder: Gangster Anmol Bishnoi arrives in Delhi, to be produced in Patiala House Court later

Gangster Anmol Bishnoi, a key accused in the murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique, was deported to India from the US today, and will be produced in Patiala House Court in Delhi, as per reports. 

Anmol, the brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, is also wanted in the case involving the firing at actor Salman Khan's residence in April 2024.

He arrived in Delhi on Wednesday, along with two other individuals wanted in Punjab.

According to sources, Anmol fled India in April 2022 using a forged passport, just weeks before singer Sidhu Moosewala was shot dead on May 29 that year.

He is believed to have used fraudulent Russian documents while moving between the US and Canada until he was traced and detained.

NCP leader and former MLA Zeeshan Siddique, the son of the late Baba Siddique, confirmed that he received an email stating Anmol had been ‘removed’ from US territory.

He said his family had registered a victim contact status with US agencies, entitling them to official updates, and urged the Centre to ensure Anmol’s immediate arrest upon arrival.

Siddique added that he had repeatedly written to US authorities detailing his father's killing and the suspected role of the Bishnoi network.

He also said he had expressed concerns regarding his own security to Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and Union Minister Devendra Fadnavis, seeking a review in light of recent developments.

Baba Siddique, a former Maharashtra Minister, was shot dead on October 12, 2024, outside his son's office in Bandra. Several individuals linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang were arrested in the case.
