Chandigarh, Aug. 7 -- In a major security breach at Panjab University (PU) ahead of student body elections, five outsiders, including an associate of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, were found on campus on Wednesday evening. Police found them sitting in a car, with a Punjab registration number, near the law auditorium and took them into preventive detention. The accused have been identified as Braham Dutt, 28, of Industrial Area Phase 1, who has seven FIRs registered against him, Vishal, 28, of Bapu Dham Colony, Sector 26, Vikash, 28, of Togan village, Mohali, Anand Yadav, 26, of Maloya, and Kshitij, 26, of Hallomajra. As per the police, Dutt was one of the accused in a 2020 case where 17 shots were fired at liquor baron Arvind Singla's brother's house in Sector 33. Police investigations had revealed that gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, who was lodged in Bharatpur jail in Rajasthan at the time, had planned the attack and got it executed through his aide Deepu Banur, lodged in Ambala jail in Haryana. Dutt, along with Bishnoi gang members Kulwinder Singh, alias Kala, and Siva, alias Shiva Veeran, were arrested June 18, 2020, but later let off on bail. Dutt was also involved in another shooting case registered in April 2020 at the Industrial Area police station. Police said the other accused, Vishal, also faced four FIRs, including an altercation with bouncers during a private event at Baithak in Kalagram, Manimajra in 2022. Accused Anand Yadav has two FIRs registered against him for offences including voluntarily causing hurt using dangerous weapons. Police cited the upcoming Panjab University Campus Students Council (PUCSC) elections while taking them into preventive detention under Sections 126 (security for keeping peace in other cases) and 170 (arrest to prevent commission of cognisable offences) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. They will be produced before the sub-divisional magistrate (SDM, Central) on Thursday. PU rolls out stickers for four-wheeler entryP2...
