Now this gang has also targeted a common citizen of Khatushyamji, due to which an atmosphere of fear has once again been created in the area.
According to the information, Manvendra Singh Chauhan, son of Kalu Singh Chauhan, former treasurer of Khatushyamji Shri Shyam Mandir Committee, received a WhatsApp call from a foreign number on Sunday, January 4 at around 4:29 pm. The caller identified himself as Hari Boxer, a member of the Lawrence gang, and demanded extortion money of Rs 3 crore. The person threatening said that if the money was not given he would be shot or bombed.
Immediate police action and security cordon
After receiving the threatening call, Manvendra Singh Chauhan got scared and informed his family about the incident. Later, on the advice of family members, he registered a case at Khatushyamji police station. Taking this whole matter seriously, the police immediately started investigation and have provided security guards to Manvendra Singh so that there is no lapse in his security.
More than 50 people have been interrogated so far, important clues found

The police is busy identifying the source of the call and possible suspects with the help of technical aspects. According to Chaubey, “The investigation of the case is progressing rapidly and the police have found many important clues. This entire case will be revealed soon.”
Threats have been received before also
This is not the first case of a person receiving threats in Khatushyamji. Earlier, two more people in the same town had received ransom threats. A few months ago, Khatu Cooperative Society President Shyam Sundar Punia had received a threat. After this, the well-known grain trader Puran Mal Harnathka was also given threats and money was demanded through calls and messages. Now the third case has once again raised the question that how are such international calls reaching the religious city of Khatushyamji and what is the real mechanism behind them.
Lawrence and Rohit Godara gang’s growing network
According to Rajasthan Police reports, Lawrence Bishnoi gang and its associated henchmen are active in many districts of the state these days. These gangs threaten people through WhatsApp calls, voice calls, social media messages and video calls. Threat actors mostly use foreign numbers, so that it is difficult to trace their location and network. According to the police, the main objective of these gangs is to create an atmosphere of fear among the people and to extort money.
Shekhawati region,Which includes Sikar, Jhunjhunu and Churu districts,It is a commercially and socially active area across the country. Many prominent businessmen and social workers here have already been the target of these gangs. So far, more than 10 such threat cases have been reported in Sikar, while many complaints are under investigation.
Shadow of fear and challenge of police
Such incidents have become a big challenge for the local administration amidst the crowd of pilgrims in Khatushyamji. The police now not only have to search for such accused, but also have to ensure that an atmosphere of fear does not spread among the common citizens. Temple committee and businessmen have also demanded to increase security.
In this regard, many social representatives of Khatushyamji area said that this incident is very serious, because thousands of devotees come here every day. If such gangs can contact foreign numbers, then it is also a big matter related to cyber security. The police are expected to form Cyber Cell and Special Operation Group (SOG).SOG) With the help of this, do accurate investigation and reach the root of this network.
Concern among local people and businessmen regarding security
In a peaceful town like Khatushyamji, such incidents are definitely increasing the feeling of insecurity among the people. But police say that in recent cases, due to technical investigation and vigilance, many important successes have been achieved and now surveillance and strictness in the area has been increased.
Action has been started against those making threats at cyber and local level. Citizens and businessmen of Khatu Shyam Ji have also been appealed to take any unknown call or message seriously and immediately inform the police. Police claim that by exposing the criminals soon, an atmosphere of trust and peace will be established again in Shekhawati.
