New Delhi, Nov 12, 2026: The police are investigating a death threat against former Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal, allegedly issued in the name of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, with the caller demanding Rs 7 crore.

The threat was reported by Tilak Nagar MLA Jarnail Singh, who told the Delhi Police that he had received a phone call and a WhatsApp message from a person claiming to be a member of the gang with links abroad.

In a complaint filed with the police in Punjab’s Mohali on November 6, Singh said the caller demanded Rs 7 crore and threatened to kill Kejriwal and his daughter, Harshita Kejriwal, if the money was not paid.

The police in Mohali have filed a case under both the BNS and the IT Act, and have given the case to an officer of the cyber crime unit identified as Sunil Kumar.

Investigators said they are examining call records, internet protocol logs and location data linked to the mobile number used to issue the threat. Singh has also sought adequate security for Kejriwal and his family.
