A day after Delhi Police on Wednesday said gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, currently in its custody, was the mastermind behind singer Sidhu Moose Wala's murder, intelligence agencies have now learnt that Bishnoi's brother Anmol has fled the country and Bishnoi's nephew Sachin is absconding.

Sources in intelligence agencies told ANI, "Sachin Bishnoi, who took the responsibility of killing Sidhu Moose Wala, is expected to leave the country, while according to intelligence agencies, Lawrence Bishnoi's brother Anmol Bishnoi has already left the country."

According to the police sources, both of them were likely the main coordinators of the Punjabi singer's murder.

If sources are to be believed, Lawrence Bishnoi was aware of this. Anmol left the country right after the plan was executed, while Sachin is also feared to have left the country. Sources said that Sachin himself had claimed responsibility for the incident, while Anmol's name had cropped up during the interrogation of those arrested by the Punjab Police.

Sources said that so far, five shooters have been identified, while the one who has been caught by the police so far is not the shooter but only involved in the conspiracy in some way or the other.

Saurabh Mahakal, a resident of Maharashtra, was arrested in a joint operation by Mumbai and Delhi Police. Mahakal has told the police officials during interrogation that Santosh alias Sonu, a resident of Pune, Maharashtra, was involved in the shooting, while Priyavrat and Manjeet, residents of Sonipat, were also present during the shooting and opened fire. The footage of both of them was found in a CCTV located near the incident, in which they were in the same Bolero from which Moosewala was chased.

The police also have two more pictures, Manpreet and Jagroop, residents of Tarn Taran in Punjab. It is believed that he was also involved in the shooting. It is learned that Lawrence Bishnoi was running a racket of extortion from singers in Punjab.
