The Delhi Police on Tuesday arrested four people, including two women in connection with the firing incident on actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Mumbai a day earlier, officers aware of the development said.
The Maharashtra Police has received three-day transit remand of the accused, and they will be interrogated in Mumbai, news agency PTI quoted an officer as saying. The three are also in the custody of Mumbai police. “The pistol was in Radha’s bag. Kunal stayed in touch with them on encrypted app during the journey. Salman was primary target of attackers, say police.
On October 15, police said Kunal took Radha and her associate Babita to New Delhi Railway Station. On 17 October, the women got down at Dadar and checked into a hotel. A boy collected the bag at about 11 am from Radha near the hotel. On 18 October (Sunday), about 7 PM, the firing took place,” said the DCP.
