Lawrence Bishnoi gang member arrested after encounter in Bihar
Police in Bihar just nabbed a major shooter from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang during a late-night/midnight encounter near the Jehanabad border of Patna district.
This was part of 'Operation Langda,' a crackdown on organized crime that's got multiple state police teams working together.
Thankfully, no officers were hurt.
What went down and why it matters
The arrest happened after police spotted suspicious activity at a routine vehicle check in Masaurhi.
When they tried to stop the car, the vehicle's occupants allegedly opened fire, and the arrested accused was later identified as Parmanand—a known gang member.
Police fired back, injuring an accused who was later taken into custody, and recovering illegal guns from his possession.
Parmanand has a long rap sheet for murder and extortion across Bihar and Jharkhand, so this is a big win for the ongoing operation.
Cops say his arrest could lead to more breakthroughs soon.
