Tiger Shroff Firing Case: Suspects Caught in Kota Had Received ₹50,000 Advance, Say Police
Three suspects allegedly involved in the firing at Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Mumbai were arrested in Rajasthan’s Kota, with police sources indicating that they had received ₹50,000 in advance for the operation.
The arrests were made by a joint team of the Rajasthan Anti-Gangster Task Force and Kota City Police, acting on information shared by Mumbai Police. The suspects were intercepted aboard a train while allegedly attempting to flee Mumbai.
Three suspects held in Kota
The accused have been identified as Phool Singh, 17, Hrithik Kumar alias Roshan, 22, and Rehan, 18. Two of them are from Haryana’s Sonipat district, while the third is from Bihar and had been living in Mumbai, according to reports.
Investigators are questioning the suspects to establish their individual roles in the shooting, the alleged payment and whether others were involved in planning the attack.
Tiger Shroff’s car targeted in Juhu
The firing took place on Sunday evening, October 18, when Tiger Shroff was leaving a football ground in Mumbai’s Juhu area. The attackers allegedly opened fire at his car before fleeing on a motorcycle.
The actor escaped direct gunshot injuries, while his driver and another person were injured in the incident. Police later recovered the motorcycle suspected to have been used by the attackers.
Police probe possible gang links
Investigators are also examining the alleged links between the suspects and the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. A purported social media post and audio clip claiming responsibility for the attack surfaced after the shooting, but the claims require independent verification.
Mumbai Police had formed 15 teams to trace the suspects. Investigators are now probing the alleged advance payment, the motive behind the attack and whether the suspects had monitored the actor’s movements before the incident.
The investigation is ongoing.
