The crackdown on the Lawrence Bishnoi gang has intensified overseas, with an alleged associate arrested in France and another ordered to be deported from Canada, days after US authorities indicted jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and his close aide Satinderjeet Singh alias Goldy Brar.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said on Friday that Garinder Dev, an alleged Bishnoi gang associate, had been arrested in France and would face extradition proceedings to Canada. According to the US Department of Justice (DOJ), Dev, 40, also known as “Doctor”, “Rocket” and “Ritz Carlton”, allegedly helped generate financial gains for the Bishnoi-led criminal network.
