Sidhu Moose Wala murder case: Punjab police gets 7 days remand of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi

Earlier, Bishnoi was presented before Chief Judicial Magistrate in Mansa court in Sidhu Moose Wala murder case, reports ANI.

Punjab police on Wednesday got 7 days remand of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Earlier, Lawrence Bishnoi was presented before Chief Judicial Magistrate in Mansa court by Punjab Police in connection with Sidhu Moose Wala murder case. Bishnoi was taken to Punjab after Delhi`s Patiala House Court on Tuesday allowed Punjab Police to arrest gangster Lawrence Bishnoi in connection with singer Sidhu Moose Wala`s murder and also allowed Punjab Police`s transit application. Advocate Vishal Chopra appearing for Lawrence Bishnoi opposed the Punjab Police application and said that there is a security threat. There is apprehension that Lawrence Bishnoi may be "eliminated" if transit remand is granted.

Bishnoi`s lawyer submitted that we are not opposing virtual interrogation and investigation. "We are just opposing his physical transit remand to Punjab. Punjab Police can arrest him in the case, if needed, but in Delhi only," he added.
