Tiger Shroff attack case: 2 women among four held in Delhi for supplying weapon
The Mumbai Crime Branch is investigating the shooting incident on actor Tiger Shroff, looking into the identity of Rehan Rahisuddin (18), one of the shooters. Police are examining whether Tiger Shroff was their original target or if they changed their focus due to a ‘main’ target with security measures in place. Anil Pandit's prompt sharing of the attack footage has led investigators to suspect that either Pandit or someone close to him was guiding the trio throughout the attack.
The police have found that top gang leaders, such as Anmol Bishnoi, would call shooters before and after an attack to motivate them and guide their escape. The accused, Rehan, was reportedly communicating with someone on an internet call via Zangi or Signal apps, which help gang members avoid law enforcement tracking. Rehan, a 18-year-old from Sonepat, Haryana, had a previous case against him and was introduced to the Bishnoi gang through a friend.
The group included Hrithik Mahto (22), a bodybuilder and rider, and Phool Singh (18). Sources indicate that the gang's intention was to instill fear within Bollywood, and Hrithik's presence in Andheri West, a favored area for Bollywood celebrities, might have been a deliberate choice. Police plan to bring the suspects to the court soon, potentially invoking the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against them.
