Mumbai, October 19, 2026: Police have arrested three suspects in Rajasthan’s Kota in connection with the firing at Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s car in Mumbai’s Juhu area. The arrests mark a major development in the investigation, which is now being handled by the Mumbai Crime Branch.
According to reports published on Monday, the suspects were intercepted aboard a train at Kota railway station while travelling away from Mumbai. Police are investigating their alleged roles in the incident, the motive behind the attack and possible links to organised crime.
Three Suspects Caught at Kota Railway Station
The arrests followed coordination between Mumbai Police and Rajasthan Police. Reports indicate that the suspects were travelling by train when authorities received information about their movements.
Kota police reportedly acted quickly, searching the train and apprehending the three men. One of the suspects is reported to be a minor. Authorities are expected to transfer the accused to Mumbai Police for further investigation and legal proceedings. Investigators are also examining the alleged escape route and whether other people helped plan or execute the attack.
What Happened in the Tiger Shroff Firing Incident?
The firing took place on Sunday evening, October 18, in Mumbai’s Juhu area. According to media reports, unidentified assailants opened fire at a vehicle associated with Tiger Shroff. The shooting prompted a police investigation, including the examination of CCTV footage and other evidence to identify those responsible.
Mumbai Crime Branch Investigates Possible Gang Links
Investigators are examining possible links between the suspects and individuals claiming an association with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. However, the alleged connection and the precise chain of responsibility must be established through the ongoing investigation.
A social media claim reportedly linked the attack to the gang, but such claims should not be treated as independently verified proof of who ordered or carried out the shooting. Police are expected to investigate the alleged motive, the roles of the arrested suspects and whether additional individuals were involved.
CM Devendra Fadnavis Vows Strong Action
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has vowed strong action in response to the incident, according to media reports. The case has raised renewed concerns about security and threats involving prominent public figures.
Authorities are continuing to gather evidence and determine the circumstances surrounding the firing. Further details about the suspects, the alleged motive and any wider conspiracy may emerge as the investigation progresses.
What Happens Next?
With three suspects arrested in Kota and the investigation being handled by Mumbai Crime Branch, the next steps include questioning the accused, examining evidence and establishing whether other people were involved.
The arrests represent a significant development, but the case remains under investigation. Any allegations against the suspects or claims about wider criminal links will need to be assessed through the legal process.
