In a major breakthrough in the firing incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff, police have reportedly detained three suspects, including a minor, from Kota in Rajasthan. The development comes as the Mumbai Crime Branch intensifies its investigation into the shooting, which raised serious security concerns in the film industry.
According to reports, the three suspects include two individuals from Haryana and one from Bihar. Police are investigating their alleged involvement in the attack, with preliminary findings suggesting that two of them were involved in the firing.
Bike Used in the Shooting Recovered
Investigators have also recovered the motorcycle allegedly used in the incident. According to the available details, the suspects reportedly abandoned the bike near Andheri West railway station in Mumbai after the shooting.
They are believed to have subsequently boarded a train heading towards Borivali, potentially attempting to escape the area and avoid immediate detection. Investigators are examining their movements and the sequence of events following the attack to establish the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The recovery of the motorcycle could provide investigators with important leads as they work to establish the suspects’ individual roles and identify any additional people involved.
Tiger Shroff and Driver Suffer Injuries
Although Tiger Shroff escaped a direct gunshot injury, reports indicate that he sustained injuries to his left hand from gunpowder residue and glass fragments. His driver was also reportedly injured during the incident.
The circumstances of the shooting, including the intended target and the motive behind the attack, remain key aspects of the ongoing investigation. Police are expected to examine available evidence and statements to reconstruct the sequence of events.
Mumbai Crime Branch Expands Investigation
The Mumbai Crime Branch is reportedly conducting raids in Rajasthan and Gujarat as part of its efforts to track down other individuals who may be connected to the case.
Meanwhile, the Lawrence gang has reportedly claimed responsibility for the firing. Investigators will need to verify the claim and establish whether the alleged perpetrators acted on the instructions of any organised criminal network.
The detention of the three suspects marks a significant development in the case. Further details about their identities, alleged motives and possible connections are expected to emerge as the investigation progresses.
