New Delhi: A sharpshooter of the infamous Lawrence Bishnoi syndicate, involved in a recent firing incident for extortion in the city, was arrested from the outskirts of the national capital, a Delhi Police official said Thursday.

The accused was identified as Satender Kumar aka Sikander (20), a native of Sitapur district in Uttar Pradesh.

According to police, specific input was received Monday regarding the movement of a person, who was involved in the firing case registered at Moti Nagar police station, a week ago, carrying illegal firearms.

“As per the information, a raid was conducted and Satender was apprehended,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police (Outernorth) RK Singh.

During the investigation, he disclosed that he came in touch with one of the gang members of Lawrance Bishnoi, Kala Rana and Kapil Mann gang in September 2023.

“In the last week of March-24, he was directed via Signal App to reach a designated place in Naraina where he met with another boy who was riding a scooty (Identification yet to be established),” said the DCP.

The duo then went to the house of a man in Moti Nagar where the rider fired several rounds at about 2 p.m. on March 31 and fled.

“After the incident, he was dropped by the rider near Rithala metro station and thereafter he evaded arrest by staying at different places,” said the DCP.
