Surrey Mayor Pushes for Terrorist Tag for Bishnoi Gang
The Mayor of Surrey, Canada, wants the government to officially label the Lawrence Bishnoi gang as terrorists.
She believes this will give police more power to stop the gang.
The gang is accused of ordering killings and taking money from people.
Another mayor in a different city agrees with her.
The gang leader is in jail in India, but his associate, Goldy Brar, is still active and is suspected of various crimes including ordering the shooting at Punjabi singer AP Dhillon's house.
Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke urges terror designation for the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
The Mayor believes this would aid law enforcement in combating organized crime.
Locke cites recent killings and extortions linked to the Bishnoi gang as 'economic terrorism'.
Other Canadian authorities, including the Mayor of Brampton, support this action.
Lawrence Bishnoi is currently incarcerated in India, with key aide Goldy Brar operating globally.
