Tiger Shroff shooters visited Aamir Khan, Salman Khan homes, say cops

Mumbai Police have arrested 10 people in the 18 October firing at actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Juhu. The three shooters had visited buildings where actors Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and Ranveer Singh reside during their month-long stay in the city. Investigators said they are still probing whether the gang had named those actors as targets or whether the visits were out of curiosity. Hindustan Times reports the police believe Shroff was not the original target and was chosen because he had less security cover than the other actors.

Three key accused, Phool Singh, Rehan Ansari and Hritik Kumar alias Roshan Ramu Mahto, were brought to Mumbai from Kota, Rajasthan, and remanded in police custody until 31 October. Four others were arrested by Delhi Police for allegedly supplying the weapon through a dead-drop method, and two women are among those held. Mumbai Police told the court the attack was carried out at the behest of Anil Pandit, a suspected Lawrence Bishnoi gang operative. The four Delhi-accused were produced before the Anti-Extortion Cell on 22 October.
