Gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's Twisted Crusade of Violence and Extortion
17 Oct
Summary
- Bishnoi portrays himself as a moral crusader while unleashing extortion, shootings, and assassinations
- Bishnoi's gang claims responsibility for attacks in Canada, citing "justice" and "religion"
- Bishnoi recruits vulnerable youths via social media, promising a "righteous" purpose
As of October 17th, 2025, Lawrence Bishnoi, a notorious gangster currently imprisoned in Ahmedabad's Sabarmati jail, has been orchestrating a twisted crusade of violence and extortion, hiding behind a noble facade. Bishnoi and his network have portrayed themselves as self-appointed avengers, defenders of wildlife, workers' rights, and justice, while unleashing a series of extortion, shootings, and assassinations.
This facade not only improves Bishnoi's image among his supporters but also sows fear, blurring the line between crime and crusade. Recent attacks, such as the ones on Kapil Sharma's cafe in Surrey, Canada, and the targeting of properties linked to businessman Navi Dhesi in British Columbia, have seen Bishnoi's associates claim responsibility, citing "justice" and "religion" as justification.
Bishnoi's long-running vendetta against Bollywood star Salman Khan, stemming from the 1998 poaching incident, has further reinforced his image as a moral crusader. The gangster, a devout follower of the 29 Bishnoi principles emphasizing wildlife protection, has framed his threats against Khan as a sacred duty.
Experts warn that Bishnoi's network has been actively recruiting vulnerable youths via social media, promising them a "righteous" purpose. As the international community cracks down on the Bishnoi gang, designated as a terrorist entity in Canada, the threat of further strikes remains, with Bishnoi's associates continuing to claim responsibility for their actions while cloaking them in the garb of justice and moral vigilantism.
