The accused have been identified as Rehan alias Sukka, Ritik Kurmi alias Roshan, and Phool Singh. Police are investigating the alleged conspiracy behind the attack, the source of the weapons used, and possible links to other suspects.

Tiger Shroff Was Allegedly Not the Original Target

According to the Mumbai Crime Branch, the shooters initially planned to target another prominent Bollywood celebrity but allegedly changed their target because of tight security. Investigators are probing the suspected connection to Salman Khan, although police have not publicly confirmed the identity of the original intended target in the available reports.

Police Investigate Suspected Gang Links

Police have told the court that the weapons allegedly used in the attack have yet to be recovered. Investigators also suspect that mobile phones used by the accused were destroyed, making it necessary to examine their communications and identify other people involved in the alleged conspiracy.

Authorities are also investigating a possible connection to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, which was linked to claims of responsibility circulating after the incident. These allegations remain under investigation.

Investigation Continues

The three accused were arrested in Kota while allegedly attempting to leave Mumbai. Police are continuing their investigation to establish the motive, recover the weapons, and determine whether additional individuals helped plan or execute the attack.

The case remains under investigation, and the allegations against the accused have yet to be established in court.
