Shroff Car Firing Probe Widens as Mumbai Police Hold Another Woman

The investigation into the firing on Tiger Shroff's car has taken a new turn with the detention of another woman by the Mumbai Crime Branch. The case has already seen the arrest of three women, and the role of a women-linked group is now being examined closely by investigators.

Police said the woman was detained while the firing case was being investigated. She has been brought to the Anti-Extortion Cell for questioning. Officials have not yet said what her link to the case is.

Before this, Radha and Babita had been arrested in Delhi.

On Thursday, the Mumbai Crime Branch's Anti-Extortion Cell arrested three additional accused from Sonipat, Haryana. The police have been carrying out raids in various states on the basis of their intelligence inputs. Following arrests in Kota, Rajasthan, and Delhi, the three accused were apprehended in Haryana.

The Anti-Extortion Cell is now escorting the three accused to Mumbai, where they will be produced in court. They have been identified as Sameer, Jatin and Ankit Khatak.

According to the police, Sameer acted as a coordinator and a link between Anil Pandit and shooter Rehan. He is also accused of providing funds and weapons. Police said that soon after the firing, the Lawrence Bishnoi gang claimed responsibility through a social media post, and that a person named Anil Pandit was posting for the gang.

The roles of two of the three newly arrested men are still being investigated.

The total number of accused arrested in the case has reached 10, including two women. Interrogation of the third woman who has been detained is underway.
