Three Suspects In Tiger Shroff Firing Case Arrested In Kota While Allegedly Fleeing To Nepal

According to police, the three suspects were apprehended from a train at Kota railway station following inputs from Mumbai Police. The operation involved Rajasthan Police, the Anti-Gangster Task Force and railway police personnel.

The accused were travelling on the Pune-Jaipur Express after leaving Mumbai following the shooting incident in the Juhu area. Preliminary questioning reportedly revealed that they intended to travel to Delhi before escaping to Nepal.

The suspects have been identified as Rehan, Phool Singh and Hrithik Kumar, also known as Roshan. Reports said one of the accused is a minor, another is from Sonipat in Haryana, and the third is from Begusarai in Bihar and had been living in Mumbai.

Kota Police Superintendent Tejaswini Gautam said the team acted swiftly after receiving information about the suspects’ presence on the train. Police personnel searched the train and detained the three men within a short period.

Officials said no firearms had been recovered from the suspects at the time of their detention. Investigators are seeking to establish what happened to the weapons allegedly used in the attack.

What Happened in the Tiger Shroff Firing Incident?

The shooting took place on Sunday evening, October 18, in Mumbai’s Juhu area. Motorcycle-borne assailants allegedly opened fire at the vehicle associated with Tiger Shroff.

The actor escaped serious injury, but his driver and another person were reportedly wounded in the incident. The shooting prompted a police investigation and heightened security around the actor.

Investigators are examining whether the suspects had monitored Shroff’s movements before the attack. According to preliminary reports, the assailants may have tracked his routine and planned their escape in advance. These details remain subject to further investigation.

Police Probe Possible Lawrence Bishnoi Gang Links

Investigators are also examining the suspected links between the accused and the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. According to reports, Rehan had previously been in contact with Anil Pandit, who has been linked to the gang.

Individuals claiming to represent the gang reportedly claimed responsibility for the attack on social media. Police are investigating the authenticity of those claims and whether the shooting was carried out at the direction of other people.

Accused to Be Handed Over to Mumbai Police

Kota Police said the suspects would be handed over to Mumbai Police for further investigation. Investigators are expected to question them about the alleged shooting, the weapons used, their escape route and any possible accomplices.

The investigation will also seek to establish the motive behind the attack and determine whether the accused acted independently or as part of a wider criminal conspiracy.

The arrests mark a significant development in the case, although the allegations against the suspects will need to be established through the legal process.
