Delhi: Punjab Police on
Tuesday finally got custody and transit remand of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi as
it told a court in Delhi that he is a key conspirator in singer Sidhu Moose
Wala's murder. This came in a hearing in which Punjab Advocate General
Anmol Rattan Sidhu assured the court that the state will take "full
responsibility" for the gangster's security.
Punjab
Police had filed two applications — one for his arrest and the other for his
transit remand. The court first allowed the arrest and then delivered the
order for physical custody a little later in the evening.
"There will be
about 50 police personnel of Punjab Police, two bulletproof vehicles; 12
vehicles will run on the way which will clear the route. All routes will be
videographed," the Punjab government lawyer told the duty magistrate at
Patiala House Court. Mr Sidhu said the orders of the Supreme Court as passed in
such cases will be followed.
Bishnoi was produced
in Delhi's Patiala House Court after his custody with Delhi Police in an Arms
Act case ended. He has been lodged in Tihar Jail and facing cases in
multiple states.
His lawyer Vishal
Chopra opposed the Punjab Police application for custody, saying that there is
apprehension he may be "eliminated" if transit remand is granted. He
said virtual interrogation could be done. "We are just opposing his
physical transit remand to Punjab Police. They can arrest him in the case, if
needed, but in Delhi only," the lawyer said.
Shubhdeep Singh alias
Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead in Jawahar Ke village of Punjab's Mansa district
on May 29.
Punjab Police
submitted on Tuesday that the arrested accused had said Lawrence Bishnoi was
behind the murder. The motive, according to Punjab Police, was "to
avenge the killing of Vikramjeet Singh alias Vicky Middukhera, in which there
was an alleged involvement of Shagundeep Singh, manager of Shubhdeep Singh
(Sidhu Moose Wala), who is now absconding".
"Delhi Police, too,
questioned Bishnoi, and have clearly stated that he is the key
conspirator", Punjab Police further said.
After getting the remand,
Punjab Police now have to produce Lawrence Bishnoi in a court in Mansa within
24 hours.
