Ankit Sirsa, who shot dead singer-politician Sidhu Moose Wala on May 29, has been arrested by the Special Cell of Delhi Police along with his accomplice.
A team of the Special Cell NDR arrested two of the most wanted criminals of the Lawrence Bishnoi-Goldy Brar gang alliance.
Ankit was one of the shooters involved in the killing of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala. He was also involved in two cases of attempts to murder in Rajasthan.
The other arrested accused Sachin Bhiwani was responsible for harbouring four of the shooters in the Sidhu Moose Wala case.
Ankit Sirsa shot Sidhu from close range. He was accompanied by Priyavrat Fauji in a car. The accused’s car waylaid Moose Wala, by blocking his vehicle. They shot Moose Wala and then fled the spot. Priyavrat Fauji was the head of the ‘Bolero Module’ of the gang.
On May 29, singer-politician Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead by unidentified assailants in Punjab’s Mansa district. Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead a day after the state government curtailed his security cover. His cousin and a friend, who were travelling in a jeep with him, were also injured in the attack.
