Gang ties
Bhatti's connections and threats to Anmol Bishnoi
Bhatti had close links with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and was involved in high-profile targeted killings, including those of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala and NCP leader Baba Siddiqui. The alliance between the two gangs soured after Bhatti helped Zeeshan Akhtar escape India. Notably, Anmol Bishnoi, brother of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, had expressed concern over threats he received from Bhatti on social media.

The police said there are more links to this group, which will be shared with the Punjab Police for further action.
