The Lawrence Bishnoi gang has claimed responsibility for two recent shooting incidents targeting Indian nationals residing in Portugal, marking a significant escalation in the criminal syndicate's international reach. The group issued a chilling warning to victims, suggesting that further violence is imminent if their extortion-related demands are not met.
The claims surfaced through a viral social media post authored by an operative identifying himself as Rahul RK Meena, who is reportedly associated with the Sunil Meena Gang. The post explicitly took credit for attacks on the residence of Gurpreet Singh Gill in Vila Nova de Milfontes and an earlier incident on May 6 involving an individual named Gurdeep Singh in Sintra.

The syndicate’s statement serves as a stern warning to those residing abroad, asserting that individuals cannot escape the gang's influence by fleeing to Europe. By leveraging hashtags linked to various criminal networks, including the Rahul Dubey Gang and the Aman Sahu Gang, the post highlights a highly organised, transcontinental extortion racket. The group’s message remains clear, threatening that the next volley of gunfire will be directed at the victims themselves rather than just their properties.

International law enforcement agencies and local Portuguese authorities are actively monitoring the situation. While investigations into these cross-border activities remain ongoing, the incident has raised significant concerns regarding the safety of the Indian diaspora in Europe. Security experts suggest that these targeted attacks reflect the evolving strategy of domestic gangs to project power internationally through intimidation and violence against specific high-value targets.
