Bihar MP gets death threat from Lawrence Bishnoi gang

Patna: Bihar Member of Parliament (MP) Pappu Yadav has received a death threat from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.

According to Kashmir Media Service, in an audio clip, the caller claimed that he was closely monitoring Yadav’s movements, and threatened to kill him if he didn’t stay away from matters involving actor Salman Khan.

The caller also claimed that Lawrence Bishnoi – who is in Sabarmati jail in Ahmedabad – was paying Rs 1 lakh per hour to disable signal jammers, allowing him to establish direct communication with Yadav, who he said had been ignoring their calls.

Recently, the Lawrence Bishnoi gang claimed the murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique in Mumbai. After the politician’s murder, Pappu Yadav, the Independent MP from Purnea, openly challenged Bishnoi, declaring that he would dismantle the network of “a two-bit criminal” like the gangster within 24 hours if allowed.

In a recorded audio message, the caller can be heard saying, “You could have told ‘bhai’ that the media did this, not me. Settle the matter as soon as possible. I considered you an elder brother, and you’ve embarrassed me. Call back, and I’ll connect you with ‘bhai.’”

Yadav reported the threat to Bihar’s Director General of Police (DGP), urging immediate action.

Condemning Baba Siddique’s murder, Yadav labelled it a disgrace, stating on X that the killing of a government-backed former minister highlighted “total lawlessness” in Maharashtra. He further remarked, “The murder of Bihar’s son, Baba Siddique, is extremely tragic. If the BJP-led government cannot protect its influential leaders, what hope is there for ordinary people?”

During a press conference that followed, Yadav grew visibly frustrated when journalists asked about Lawrence Bishnoi, reminding them, “I’ve already told you not to ask irrelevant questions here.” A video of him losing his temper during the exchange has since gone viral.
