The high-profile investigation surrounding the firearm attack on actor Tiger Shroff's vehicle has entered a new phase as the probe extends directly into Haryana. Fresh updates indicate that three distinct teams from Mumbai have arrived in Sonipat to carry out coordinated raids across multiple locations. Law enforcement personnel are actively tracking down individuals suspected of having direct or indirect involvement in the criminal conspiracy. According to official findings released so far, a cumulative total of eight arrests have been made in connection with the case, encompassing the two alleged shooters alongside five local residents from Sonipat.
The Initial Attack in Juhu
The sequence of events began on October 18 when the actor's car came under sudden gunfire while traversing the Juhu neighborhood in Mumbai. Assailants aboard a motorcycle intercepted the vehicle and opened fire on it. Fortunately, the actor remained completely unharmed during the assault. However, the driver, Firdous, sustained a bullet injury to his left arm. In the immediate aftermath, law enforcement authorities formed specialized investigation squads, combed through extensive closed-circuit television footage from the surrounding areas, and initiated a rigorous manhunt for the perpetrators.
Interception Aboard a Train
Digital tracks and tactical intelligence soon revealed that the suspects had fled the city limits. Acting on actionable inputs provided by investigators, police personnel in Rajasthan successfully intercepted and apprehended three suspects aboard the Pune-Jaipur Express train on October 19. The individuals taken into custody included Rehan and Phool Singh from Sonipat, Haryana, alongside Rithik Kumar alias Roshan, a native of Begusarai, Bihar. Investigators noted that the suspects allegedly fled from Mumbai to Surat immediately after the shooting before boarding the train to escape.
Unraveling the Conspiracy
The capture of these three suspects directly linked the trajectory of the criminal investigation to the state of Haryana. Authorities are currently working to unearth the broader network behind the attack, specifically focusing on who aided the conspirators, the exact origin of the firearms used in the crime, and the communication channels maintained among the culprits. The ongoing operations conducted by the multiple squads in Sonipat represent a crucial leg of this unfolding inquiry.
