Gurugram Crime: Associates of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi have claimed responsibility for the bomb explosion outside a club in Gurugram's Sector 29 on Tuesday. Rohit Godara and Goldy Brar alleged that the bar owner earns crores through illegal means, evades taxes, and causes harm to the country. They warned that everyone will have to pay taxes, ANI reported.
The pub manager said the accused, Sachin, had not gone inside. The incident took place half an hour before the pub was to close.
While there were no casualties, a scooter and the bar signboard were damaged. The incident occurred around 5:15 am when Sachin, a resident of Meerut in Uttar Pradesh, threw two 'sutli bombs' towards the Human Night Club. He had planned to throw two more bombs but was nabbed by the police, an officer said.
Preliminary investigations revealed that Sachin was drunk when the incident took place. The Gurugram Police said, "The accused was in a state of intoxication. He had already thrown two cotton bombs and was about to throw two more when the police intervened and arrested him along with the bombs."
A National Investigation Agency team also inspected the spot. The Gurugram Police's Crime Branch and SWAT teams are investigating the case. The accused is being interrogated, a police spokesperson said.
The incident was reported days after similar attacks on night clubs in Chandigarh.
