Lawrence Bishnoi's Lawyer Denies Role In Tiger Shroff Attack

Lawrence Bishnoi's lawyer, Kuldeep Sharma, has denied his client's involvement in the attack on Tiger Shroff. Sharma stated that Bishnoi has become a 'brand' and any actions by his gang members are wrongly attributed to him.

The attack on Tiger Shroff occurred on October 18, 2026, outside Pushpa Narsee Park in Juhu. Anil Pandit claimed responsibility for the attack on social media.

Mumbai police have invoked the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) in the case, linking it to Lawrence Bishnoi. The police produced 11 arrested accused before a special court and sought permission to arrest them under MCOCA, which was granted.

Sharma emphasized that Bishnoi is under constant surveillance in prison and has no contact with the outside world. He also claimed that those who claimed responsibility for the attack are based in the US and have never met Bishnoi physically since he was lodged in Sabarmati prison in 2023.

The accused will be produced before the court again on Thursday, where the prosecution will seek their further custody.
