Lawrence Bishnoi's Aide Behind Badshah's Club Blast Detained In US
Randeep Singh, a gangster associated with Lawrence Bishnoi, has been detained by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Singh, who also goes by the name Randeep Malik, has been involved in orchestrating several killings and blasts at the instructions of Lawrence Bishnoi, including Delhi gym owner murder and a blast outside Badshah's club in Chandigarh. He has been put under detention at the Jackson Parish Correctional Center.
Randeep Singh And Delhi Gym Owner Murder
Singh was wanted in the murder of Delhi gym owner Nadir Shah. Last year, on September 12, gym owner Nadir Shah was shot on a busy road in Greater Kailash-1. According to the police, Shah, who is of Afghan origin, had come in the crosshairs of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang because he had asked his business partner not to pay Rs 5 crore that the outfit had tried to extort from him.
Despite being based in the US, Singh allegedly provided weapons used in Nadir Shah's murder.
Link Between Badshah's Club Blast And Randeep Singh
On November 26, two explosions occurred outside two clubs in Chandigarh - the Seville Bar and Lounge, owned by singer and rapper Badshah, and De Orra Club, owned by local businessmen. CCTV footage of the explosions showed a man throwing crude bombs at the clubs before running away. The explosions shattered the establishments' glass windows.
Hours after the incident, Goldy Brar, linked to Lawrence Bishnoi, claimed responsibility for the blast in a purported Facebook post.
Singh was allegedly involved in the firing at the instructions of Goldy Brar.
Similarly, on December 10, crude bombs were thrown outside two clubs located in Sector 29, Gurugram - Warehouse Club and Human Club. Months later, in June, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) chargesheeted five accused, including Canada-based Khalistani terrorist Goldy Brar and Singh.
Barring Brar and Malik, all others were arrested in the case. Now, Singh, who is said to have executed the bomb blast on the orders of Goldy Brar, is under detention, but in the US.
Who Is Randeep Singh
Randeep Singh, the only son of his parents, is a resident of Jind in Haryana. He has been in America for the last 10 years, where he runs a transport business under the name of Mahakal Transport. Singh reportedly drives a truck himself.
It is during his stay in the US that he was introduced to the Lawrence Bishnoi Gang.

MP: Four of Gujarat musical troupe killed, 11 injured in Shivpuri road accident
Shivpuri: Four people died and 11 others were injured in a tragic road accident in Shivpuri district of Madhya Pradesh on Saturday morning. All were members of a Gujarat-based music group returning from Varanasi after performing at the Kashi Vishwanath Temple. The accident occurred on National Highway-27, under the jurisdiction of Survaya police station, when their Traveller van collided head-on with a loaded truck coming from the opposite direction. Speaking to IANS, Arvind Chari, Survaya police station incharge said, "All the victims hailed from Mehsana and Surendranagar districts of Gujarat." The officer added that one person died on the spot while three others succumbed to their injuries at the hospital. As many as 11 others were injured, including one of the drivers, whose condition is stated to be critical. Preliminary investigations suggest that the van driver may have dozed off at the wheel, having reportedly left Varanasi at around 5 A.M. without rest. The accident took place at around 6:30 A.M., nearly 30 kilometres from the district headquarters. The driver lost control of the vehicle, which hit the central divider and veered into the opposite lane before crashing into an oncoming truck with tremendous force. The impact was so severe that several passengers were thrown from their seats, the officer said. A total of 17 people were travelling in the van at the time of the accident. The deceased have been identified as Hardik Dave (40), the lead singer of the group; Raja Thakur (28); Ankit Thakur (22); and Rajpal Solanki (60). The music troupe used to tour for devotional performances across northern India. The injured, including Mohit Rawal, Ashish Vyas, Narendra Nayak, Chetan Kumar, Harshad Goswami, Mohlik, Rishikesh, Arvind and others were rushed to a government hospital in Shivpuri. As news of the accident spread, family members were informed and administrative officials arrived at the hospital to oversee medical care and offer support. Police have launched a formal investigation into the cause of the crash.

ED raids Tamil Nadu Minister I Periyasamy, son in money laundering case
The Enforcement Directorate on Saturday searched multiple premises linked to Tamil Nadu Minister and DMK leader I Periyasamy and his MLA son as part of a money laundering investigation, official sources said. The raids were undertaken in Chennai and Dindigul under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The premises of I P Sentilkumar, the son of the 72-year-old minister for rural development, panchayats and panchayat unions, were also searched, according to the sources. Periyasamy represents the Athoor assembly constituency in Dindigul district. There was no immediate comment from Periyasamy or the DMK on the ED action. The money laundering investigation stems from an April order of the Madras High Court, which directed a special court in Dindigul to frame charges against Periyasamy and his family members in connection with a Rs 2.1 crore "disproportionate" assets case. The order came in response to some criminal revision petitions filed by the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC), challenging a special court order discharging Periyasamy and his family members from the case. The HC also directed the special court to conduct the trial on a day-to-day basis and complete it within six months. The prosecution's case was that Periyasamy had amassed wealth to the tune of Rs 2.1 crore in his name and in the names of his wife, P Suseela and sons P Sentilkumar and P Prabhu, disproportionate to his known sources of income when he was a minister between 2006 and 2010.
