  "account": "On October 11, three men were seen lingering near the Juhu football ground, where Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff frequently played each Sunday afternoon. According to CCTV footage and call records, the trio was at the location for an extended period, just before their intended attack on October 18. The men arrived at the park around 4:30 pm on the day of the shooting, keeping a watchful eye on Shroff’s movements. The police suspect there may have been additional individuals observing Shroff’s whereabouts to alert the shooters. Shroff arrived at the ground around 7 pm, and the attackers opened fire upon his arrival. The assailants aimed to kill Shroff and his driver, but their plans were thwarted when Shroff decided not to play football that day. Shroff’s friend mistook the gunfire for firecrackers, but soon realized the gunfire was real and the actor’s driver had been injured. The driver, Firdous Ibrahim Baloch, filed a complaint, describing the attackers as wearing white shoes and black trousers, with one gunman sporting a white floral shirt and the other a light-blue full-sleeved shirt. Baloch sustained injuries to his wrist and finger, while Shroff suffered chest and hand injuries.",
