In a major security clampdown, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) on Friday (December 12) has issued a stringent directive restricting any state police or agency from seeking police custody (furlough) of notorious gangster Anmol Bishnoi for the next one year under Section 303 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNSS). All interrogations must now occur exclusively within the high-security confines of Tihar Jail in Delhi. Officials cite “security reasons” for the order, which mirrors a similar restriction previously imposed on Anmol’s brother, Lawrence Bishnoi. This move ensures Anmol, recently extradited from the United States, remains anchored in Asia’s most fortified prison to face multiple trials without transit risks.
