New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): Sunil Yadav, an alleged international drug smuggler, was shot dead by members of Lawrence Bishnoi's gang in California, USA, two days ago, according to sources. Armed assailants stormed into Yadav's residence in the 6700 block in Stockton, where he was gunned down.


The killing was claimed by notorious gangsters Goldy Brar and Rohit Godara on social media. In a Facebook post, Brar stated, "To all brothers, I, Rohit Godara, and Goldy Brar, take full responsibility for the murder of Sunil Yadav, alias Goli, in California. He colluded with the Punjab Police to orchestrate the encounter of our beloved brother, Ankit Bhadu. We avenged his death." The post also mentioned the exact house number (6706) where the killing took place. Yadav, a key figure in the drug trade, was allegedly involved in narcotics supply across Punjab, Haryana, and Rajasthan. Authorities believe he had ties with law enforcement and was linked to the police in these regions. He reportedly fled to the USA two years ago after his involvement in the encounter of Ankit Bhadu, another gangster killed by the police.


Rajasthan Police had issued a Red Corner Notice against Yadav following his escape, and several of his associates were arrested in Dubai with the help of local authorities. Investigators have confirmed Yadav’s role in an international drug network spanning Dubai and the USA, where he had been operating under a fake passport. In the post, Brar also warned enemies: "To all our enemies, be prepared. We will reach you, no matter where you are in the world."
