After the police got proactive and nabbed the two men, it was found that they first did a thorough recce of the area around his home and farmhouse before shooting outside his apartment.
As the investigation continues, police have now got hold of a gun that was used in the firing episode that took place on April 14. The two men, Vicky Gupta and Sagar Pal, confirmed to police that they both had a gun each which they threw in the Tapi river in Gujarat and they ran and sought refuge in the state. The two accused were arrested from Gujarat’s Bhuj district after shooting outside the actor’s house in the Bandra area of Mumbai.
The accused threw weapons in Gujarat river
The two men who are currently in police custody revealed that they threw the weapon in the Gujarat river which led to the police scouting the area. The police are currently on the hunt for the second weapon. The two accused will stay in custody until April 25.
