Indian and international authorities detain Harichand Jat, also known as Hari Boxer, in the United States after a multi-country investigation that links him to multiple criminal cases in India, according to several reports. He is described as an aide associated with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and is said to be wanted in dozens of cases, including allegations tied to threats and an attack linked to Bollywood filmmaker Rohit Shetty.
Outlets describe how Indian agencies track his movements closely, including attention to his alleged role around a firing incident at Shetty’s Mumbai home. Some reports focus on his identity and the network of cases across states, while others add details about alleged claims of responsibility and extortion-style threats directed at prominent actors.
Coverage also connects the news to separate ongoing investigations involving Bollywood figures, including a Mumbai Crime Branch probe into a ₹5 crore threat call received by actor Tusshar Kapoor. One outlet reports investigators suspect that caller may have been impersonating “Hari Boxer” using the Bishnoi gang’s notoriety. All outlets broadly agree on the core event: US authorities hold Boxer following intelligence coordination.
