There were reports in November last year of Delhi's Tihar Jail mulling to review the security arrangements for Shraddha Walkar murder accused Aftab Poonawala who had allegedly received after threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
It was revealed that Lonkar surveilled areas of Delhi including those around Saket court intending to attack Poonawala outside the court.

Akola Police in Maharashtra arrested Lonkar and his brother in 2023.
