Mumbai Crime: Lawrence Bishnoi Gang Uses Local UPI Accounts to Fund Shooters

The Mumbai Crime Branch has uncovered a sophisticated financial network used by the <b>Lawrence Bishnoi gang</b> to fund shooters involved in the recent attack on actor Tiger Shroff’s vehicle. Investigators found that the syndicate exploited local auto-rickshaw drivers and small shopkeepers to funnel money. Criminals allegedly offered commissions to these individuals in exchange for their <b>UPI QR codes</b>. Funds were then transferred from Haryana into these local accounts, effectively masking the money trail and bypassing traditional banking surveillance to pay operatives on the ground. In a separate development, an accused named Phool Singh claimed to be a minor in the MCOCA court. The judge has ordered a formal age verification investigation.
