Ramesh Bishnoi, Lawrence’s cousin, revealed that the jailed gangster is the son of a retired Haryana constable, and the family owns nearly 110 acres of land in their village, as per a report in the Daily Guardian.
In addition, the gangster’s family spends nearly Rs 35-40 lakhs on his yearly maintenance in jail.
“We have always been financially well-off. Lawrence’s father was a constable in the Haryana Police and owns 110 acres of land in our village,” said Ramesh.
Lawrence Bishnoi, whose real name is Balkaran Brar, is a law graduate from Punjab University.
Currently, Lawrence is imprisoned in the Sabarmati Central Jail and is being investigated by the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) and the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
