All three accused have been taken on a three-day police remand. Further investigation is underway."

This follows a series of recent arrests involving members of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang in different states.

On Wednesday, Punjab Police apprehended two associates of the gang after a high-speed chase and a shootout in Jalandhar. According to police sources, the suspects fired at them, which made the police retaliate during the operation.

Officials also recovered three firearms and a significant quantity of cartridges, highlighting the potential threat posed by the gang members.

Earlier on Tuesday, Jaipur Police arrested four individuals linked to the Bishnoi gang after receiving information about their activities through social media. The arrested individuals were reportedly following social media accounts affiliated with Lawrence Bishnoi and Rohit Godara.

Jaipur Police stated that the suspects had obtained multiple illegal weapons from Madhya Pradesh and were planning to execute orders from someone allegedly connected to the gang. Acting on a tip-off from the Jaipur Commissionerate Special Team (CST), the police detained them before they could proceed with further illegal activities.

Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Singh said, "The individuals were carrying out courier work for the gang and were arrested before they could receive further instructions. Multiple weapons were recovered from their possession."

Further investigations into the Lawrence Bishnoi gang are underway, and more details are awaited. (ANI)
