Salman Khan’s House Firing: Mumbai Court Sends 2 Accused to Police Custody

A Mumbai court on Tuesday ordered the remand of two individuals arrested in connection with the firing outside Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s residence to police custody until April 25.

The Accused

The duo, Vicky Gupta (24) and Sagar Pal (21), both residents of Bihar, had been evading authorities after the firing incident outside Khan’s house in the Bandra area on Sunday morning.

They were apprehended late Monday night from Mata No Madh village in Gujarat’s Kutch district, as confirmed by the police. The two individuals were brought to Mumbai and presented before a magistrate court today.

Crime Branch

The crime branch requested 14-day custody of the pair, citing the necessity of their custodial interrogation to ascertain conspiracy details and to identify the mastermind behind the firing incident.

The court granted the police custody of the two accused for nine days, until April 25, 2024.

A police official stated that the two accused had conducted a recce around the actor’s house in the Bandra area thrice before the firing incident. At around 5 am on Sunday, two motorcycle-borne individuals had opened fire outside the 58-year-old Khan’s house at the Galaxy Apartment in the Bandra area of Mumbai and fled the spot.
