Mumbai | Gangster Anmol Bishnoi, a prime accused in the murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique, is being deported to India from the United States according to a police official. Bishnoi, who is also wanted in connection with the firing at Bollywood actor Salman Khan’s residence in April 2024, is expected to arrive in Delhi on Wednesday.
The Mumbai police submitted two proposals regarding his extradition and the official noted that there are several cases registered against him across different parts of the country, while, the Union government will decide which agency will take his custody first.
Earlier this month, investigative agencies learned that Bishnoi who frequently moved between the United States and Canada had been detained in Canada.
He was reportedly carrying a Russian passport obtained using forged documents. According to the official Zeeshan Siddique, son of Baba Siddique and NCP leader, he received an email stating that Anmol Bishnoi had been removed from the United States.
He added that this indicates Bishnoi is no longer in the US and should be brought to India to face trial for his crimes.
