Lawrence Bishnoi (born 12 February 1993) is an Indian gangster who has been imprisoned since 2014. He faces multiple criminal charges, including those for extortion and murder; however, he has denied all allegations. His gang is reportedly linked to over 700 shooters operating across the world.



Early life and education by me

Lawrence Bishnoi was born on 12 February 1993 in a village named Dutarawali in Fazilka district, Punjab. His father, a former constable in the Haryana Police, left the force in 1997 and took up farming. Bishnoi completed his early education in Abohar, Punjab, before moving to Chandigarh in 2010 to attend DAV College.

In 2011, while studying at Panjab University, Bishnoi became actively involved in student politics, joining the Panjab University Campus Students Council. During this time, he formed a close association with Goldy Brar, who would later become a notorious gangster. The two became increasingly involved in university politics, allegedly leading to criminal activities. Bishnoi went on to complete his LL.B from Panjab University.[10] He changed his name to Lawrence inspired by British educationist and administrator Henry Lawrence, the founder of The Lawrence School, Sanawar.



Criminal life

Bishnoi's criminal career began in Chandigarh between 2010 and 2012, where several First Information Reports (FIRs) were registered against him for attempted murder, trespassing, assault, and robbery.These cases were tied to his involvement in student politics. Out of seven FIRs filed against him in Chandigarh, Bishnoi was acquitted in four, while three cases remain pending.
