## Resource

The FBI is going after the Bishnoi gang — a transnational criminal syndicate led by Lawrence Bishnoi, a 33-year-old law school dropout turned prison-based kingpin — accused of orchestrating murder-for-hire, violent extortion, and terrorizing the Sikh community in Canada. Operation Hard Ball has led to 37 arrests tied to three Indian crime rings, aiming to cut off a major drug and illegal goods pipeline into Canada. Bishnoi, who allegedly built his empire from student politics and arms dealer connections, is now linked to the 2023 killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar — with his North American lieutenant, Goldy Brar, allegedly pulling the trigger. Canada has labeled the gang a terrorist entity, launched deportation efforts, and is working closely with India to dismantle this dangerous network that’s weaponized fear and corruption across borders.
