Gujarat civic polls: 2 detained for dancing with Lawrence Bishnoi posters outside vote counting centre

Two men, who were spotted dancing with posters of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi outside a vote counting centre in Kheda district, were detained to “avert any law and order situation”, police said on Tuesday.

Kheda Superintendent of Police (SP) Rajesh Gadhiya said that one is a crane operator and another owns a pan shop. Police, however, found that they had no link with Bishnoi, and one of them was merely a “fanboy”.

SP Gadhiya said, “When police personnel deployed at the site saw these two men dancing outside the counting centre with posters of Lawrence Bishnoi, they were detained and taken to the nearest police station. We investigated into the matter, but it was nothing serious.”
