Overview
- Kotputli-Behror police arrested Krishna alias Guddu (38), Sanjay Saini (31), and Sureshchand Sharma (50) at City Plaza in Kotputli and seized 35 jackets bearing the name “Lawrence.”
- In a separate step reported from Jodhpur, Boranada police detained two people who promoted the jackets on social media and recovered six items from a local shop.
- Officials said the hooded black-and-orange replicas mirror a jacket seen in a resurfaced 2017–2018 photo of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi that recently went viral on Instagram.
- The district superintendent said such merchandise glorifies criminal figures and misleads youth, with enforcement continuing under directives from police headquarters.
- An inquiry is underway to trace other sellers and promoters, following earlier actions that led e-commerce platforms to remove gangster-themed apparel.
