Mumbai Police arrest 13th accused in Tiger Shroff firing case
The Story in Brief
Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested a 22-year-old woman from Haryana in connection with the 18 October firing on actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Juhu, taking the total number of people held to 13, including three women. The Times of India identified the accused as Suneha Pandit and said she allegedly provided logistical support to the gang, other outlets did not disclose her identity or role.
Shroff escaped unhurt, his driver and a bystander vlogger were injured. Members of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang claimed responsibility. Police have invoked the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA). The 12th accused, Amar Mundiya, is in police custody until 6 November for tracing financial transactions. The Crime Branch is conducting raids across multiple states to track down all involved.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All four outlets report the arrest neutrally, with no significant divergence in stance. Times of India adds the name Suneha Pandit and specifies she gave logistical support, while Rediff, India Today and Economic Times omit the name and role. The uniform framing treats this as a routine investigative update. The investigation remains open with raids continuing across states and Mundiya’s custody until 6 November for financial probes.
