Lawrence Bishnoi has reportedly been moved to a high-security block at Ahmedabad’s Sabarmati Central Jail, where prisoners convicted in the 2008 Ahmedabad serial blasts case and others accused or convicted of serious offences are held.

Key Takeaways

  • The block is divided into four segregated sections, each designed to hold 50 prisoners.
  • Bishnoi was previously held in a smaller high-security enclosure at the same jail.

Where Lawrence Bishnoi was reportedly moved

The move to the section known as “Do Sau Kholi” or “Block 200” was reported on October 27, 2026. The block’s four sections are segregated to restrict movement between cells. Bishnoi’s cell reportedly measures about 7.5 feet by 11 feet.

The transfer is part of a security arrangement intended to restrict his communication with people outside the prison and his ability to direct his criminal network.

Previous custody and communication restrictions

Before the reported move, Bishnoi was held in “Dus Kholi”, an enclosure designed for 10 inmates. He had previously been held at Delhi’s Tihar Jail and at prisons in Punjab.

Bishnoi is reportedly under round-the-clock surveillance, with physical interaction and digital access severely restricted. His outside contact is said to be limited to video court proceedings and discussions with his lawyer about legal strategy.
