Gangster Deepak Tinu, who is said to be a close aide of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi escaped from police custody in Punjab’s Mansa district, official sources said on Sunday.

According to the police, Tinu, who had been brought to Goindwal Sahib jail by the Mansa police on a production warrant in connection with another case, had fled on Saturday night.

When asked about the incident, Patiala Range Inspector General Mukhwinder Singh Chhina, who is currently holding additional charge as Bathinda Range IG, told PTI over phone, “We are working on it, police parties are on the job and we will catch him soon.”

Earlier in September, the police had admitted that one of the suspects in the Moose Wala case had conducted a recce in Mumbai with the intention of targeting Bollywood actor Salman Khan.
