Tiger Shroff Firing Case: All 3 Suspects Arrested in Kota, Bishnoi Gang Link Under Probe
Mumbai Police have made a discovery in the firing incident which happened on Sunday, October 16, involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff, with all three suspected shooters being arrested at Kota railway station in Rajasthan on October 19. The arrests followed a coordinated operation involving the Rajasthan Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF), Kota City Police and information shared by Mumbai Police.
The firing took place when three unidentified individuals allegedly targeted the actor's car when he was leaving a football ground. The three suspects were travelling on the Pune-Jaipur Express when the police apprehended them. Investigators are now working to establish their individual roles and the motive behind the attack.
They have also indicated that Rehan had previously been jailed in a case involving the illegal possession of firearms.
"We have nabbed them from Rajasthan. They fled towards Surat. They took a Pune-Jaipur Express train. Mumbai Police shared info with Rajasthan Police and that's how Rajasthan Police nabbed them. Rajasthan Police arrested them from Kota station," Fadnavis said.
It was suggested that the suspects travelled towards Surat before boarding the train. Investigators are now looking at the route they allegedly took after leaving Mumbai, including whether they entered Gujarat while attempting to evade law enforcement.
The case has now been transferred to the Mumbai Crime Branch because of its seriousness. Authorities are expected to examine evidence, question the accused and find out whether or not the shooting was part of a wider criminal conspiracy.
The arrest of all three suspects in Kota is a major step in the investigation into the firing at Tiger Shroff's car. However, several questions remain about the motive, the alleged planning behind the attack and the suspected gang connection. The case remains under investigation, and the allegations against the arrested suspects have yet to be established in court.
