United States federal prosecutors have filed an indictment naming jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and his close associate Goldy Brar in connection with an alleged transnational criminal network. The court documents refer to multiple violent incidents, including threats against Bollywood actor Salman Khan and the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, while outlining the group’s alleged international operations.

According to the indictment, investigators allege that the criminal syndicate operated across several countries and was involved in activities such as extortion, targeted violence, and organized crime. The filing states that the references to Salman Khan and Sidhu Moosewala are part of the prosecution’s effort to describe the alleged reach and methods of the network.

The US action is part of a broader investigation into organized crime with international links. Authorities are continuing to examine financial transactions, communication records, and other evidence as the legal proceedings move forward. Officials have emphasized that the charges remain allegations that will be tested in court.

The development has drawn attention in both India and abroad because of the high-profile personalities mentioned in the indictment. Investigations by law enforcement agencies in multiple countries are expected to continue as authorities pursue individuals allegedly connected to the network.
