Zeeshan Akhtar, a resident of Jalandhar whose real name is Mohammad Yasin Akhtar, was arrested by the Punjab Police in 2022.
The probe into politician Baba Siddique's murder has shed light on the alleged involvement of the Bishnoi gang. Cops in multiple states are now searching for the two suspects who remain at large, one of them named as an associate of the gangster in police records.
Zeeshan Akhtar's name has emerged in the ongoing probe into Baba Siddiqui's murder. He was allegedly the handler of the three shooters - Dharmaraj Kashyap, Gurmail Baljit Singh, and Shivkumar Gautam. Kashyap and Singh were arrested shortly after they shot Siddiqui dead outside his son's office in Bandra on Saturday night.
The attack was claimed by a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, citing the politician's proximity to actor Salman Khan, who has been on their hit list over the 1998 blackbuck case.
