The firing at Bollywood director Rohit Shetty’s Juhu bungalow has taken a dramatic turn, with Mumbai Police unearthing evidence of gang involvement. What began as a shocking attack has evolved into a web of organized crime, as Crime Branch detectives reveal the shooter had an accomplice from the Bishnoi gang.
Eyewitness accounts and surveillance corroborated by police indicate the second man was vigilantly scanning the area while the shooter fired. Post-attack, both fled in tandem, executing a swift getaway that has left investigators scrambling.
In a breakthrough, CCTV analysis from multiple locations has yielded identifiable footage of the fugitives. Despite this, the pair remains at large after nearly two weeks, highlighting gaps in the pursuit.
Escape details paint a picture of calculated evasion: the suspects first reconnoitzed Vile Parle station but opted for private vehicles to reach Kalyan, catching an express train out of the city and state. Police are honing in on the train’s route, with suspicions they may have slipped towards Nepal.
Senior officers have mobilized special units near border areas, maintaining round-the-clock surveillance. ‘Every lead is being followed aggressively,’ one official remarked. The case underscores rising threats from underworld elements targeting film industry figures, fueling demands for robust protective measures.
As Mumbai’s underworld shadows loom larger, the hunt intensifies, promising more disclosures in this riveting saga of crime and pursuit.
