Weapon Recovery Near Railway Tracks
Investigating officers handling the Tiger Shroff firing case achieved a major breakthrough after recovering two handguns used in the October 18 shooting incident. Police recovery teams located the firearms discarded in dense brushwood near railway tracks close to Surat railway station.
Forensic analysis confirmed that the recovered pistols matched shell casings collected from the crime scene in suburban Mumbai. Suspects reportedly tossed the weapons while fleeing on a passenger train toward Gujarat immediately following the attack.
The recovery strengthens the physical evidence chain assembled by the Crime Branch as ballistics experts process the firearms for fingerprints and serial number tracking.
Eleventh Arrest Made in Indore Operation
Developments surrounding the Tiger Shroff firing case led to the arrest of an eleventh suspect during a tactical operation in Indore. Detectives apprehended Pranjal Thakran, accused of procuring and supplying firearms to the primary shooters involved in the attack.
Interrogation reports indicate that Thakran acted as a logistics facilitator for an interstate criminal syndicate linked to jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. The suspect was transferred to Mumbai under a transit remand for detailed custodial interrogation.
Law enforcement officials are mapping the financial transactions and encrypted communication channels used by syndicate handlers to coordinate weapons movement across state borders.
Enhanced Celebrity Security and Police Custody
The ongoing probe into the Tiger Shroff firing highlights expanding security measures across the Mumbai film industry. Municipal police units escalated protection protocols for high-profile film personalities who face threats from organized extortion networks.
A local magistrate court extended the police custody of previously apprehended shooters to allow investigators to complete cross-examinations. Crime Branch officers stated that coordinated raids will continue across multiple states to neutralize all local support cells assisting the syndicate.
