The assassination of former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique on October 12, 2024, has shocked political circles across India. According to recent reports, the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang has claimed responsibility for his murder through a social media post that surfaced shortly after the incident. Baba Siddique, a senior leader from the Ajit Pawar-led NCP faction, was shot outside his son Zeeshan Siddique’s office in Bandra, Mumbai.
This assassination has raised several questions regarding security and law enforcement in the city, as Siddique’s high-profile status did not shield him from such a brazen attack. The Mumbai police have arrested two suspects, and further investigations are underway to identify other individuals involved in the conspiracy. The alleged involvement of the Bishnoi gang adds a new dimension to the case, as the gang has previously been linked to several high-profile crimes. The motive behind the murder remains unclear, but sources suggest that it could be related to political rivalry or extortion efforts by the gang
