Tiger Shroff firing case: Verified updates, timeline and videos

November 2 update: Karnal arrest takes reported total to 13

Police have reported the arrest of a 22-year-old woman in Haryana’s Karnal on November 1, taking the number held in the Tiger Shroff firing investigation to 13, including three women. The Times of India’s Ahmed Ali and a separate PTI report published by ThePrint corroborated the arrest and total on November 2.

The reports say the operation involved assistance from Haryana police. The case concerns the October 18 firing at Shroff’s car in Juhu. The arrest is an investigative development; allegations remain subject to investigation and an arrest does not establish guilt.

October 22 court order: four accused remanded until October 26

A Mumbai magistrate on Thursday, October 22, remanded four accused brought from Delhi, including two women, to police custody until October 26. Ahmed Ali’s report in The Times of India and a separate PTI report published by Moneycontrol confirm the order. This is a separate group from the three accused brought from Kota, whose October 21 remand order runs until October 31.

Police alleged that the four were involved in supplying weapons and sought custody to investigate the alleged conspiracy. The defence opposed police custody and requested judicial custody. These submissions remain allegations and arguments in an ongoing investigation; the remand order does not establish guilt.

October 21 evening update: reports put arrest count at ten

Two more people were arrested on Wednesday in the investigation into the firing at Tiger Shroff’s car, bringing the reported total to ten. The Times of India’s report, updated at 22:13 IST, and a separate NDTV report updated at 19:32 IST corroborate that total.

The arrests are investigative steps, not findings of guilt. Allegations about the individuals’ roles, the motive and wider involvement remain under investigation. The previously reported police-custody order until October 31 concerns the three accused brought from Kota.

October 21 court update: police custody until October 31

A Mumbai court on October 21 ordered police custody until October 31 for the three accused brought from Kota. The Indian Express identified the court as Esplanade court; NDTV carried a separate PTI report confirming the custody deadline. This follows their transfer to Mumbai earlier on Wednesday.

Police asked for 14 days of custody, saying investigators still needed to recover the weapons and examine the alleged conspiracy and motive. Their claim that two mobile phones had been destroyed was a submission to the court. Defence lawyers opposed further custody, arguing that the accused had already been questioned during transit remand. The custody order is a procedural decision and does not establish guilt.

October 21 update: police outline alleged weapons route

At a Delhi Police Special Cell media briefing on Wednesday, DCP Praveen Tripathi described the investigators’ preliminary account of an alleged weapons-supply chain. He said Kunal and Sumit collected a pistol and 20 rounds from a specified location in Amritsar; Radha and Babita allegedly carried the weapons by train to Mumbai. Police said a bag was handed to a minor near Dadar railway station on October 17, the day before the Juhu firing. These are allegations attributed to police, not findings by a court. [Sources: Moneycontrol, first published 11:30 IST and updated 11:42 IST; Hindustan Times, updated 13:00 IST.]

Tripathi said preliminary police information put Kunal’s payment for arranging the weapons’ movement at ₹70,000–₹80,000, with about ₹10,000–₹12,000 allegedly paid to courier Babita. He also said questioning of the four people arrested in the alleged supply network had not revealed that they knew of another celebrity target. That statement concerns the supply group’s reported questioning; it does not settle what the alleged shooters knew or establish motive. [Sources: Moneycontrol, 11:30 IST; Hindustan Times, updated 13:00 IST.]

The two reports attribute the account to Tripathi and the Delhi Police briefing. The alleged transport, payment and handoff remain under investigation; no guilt or wider gang responsibility is established by these reports.

October 21 update: four more accused arrested in Delhi

Two independently published reports said Delhi Police Special Cell arrested four additional accused in the Juhu firing case on October 20, including two women. The Times of India reported that Maharashtra Police CID then obtained court permission to formally arrest the four and a three-day transit remand to take them to Mumbai. NDTV separately reported that the four were handed over to Mumbai Police. Its page was first published at 23:16 IST on October 20 and updated at 04:40 IST on October 21. The reports distinguish these proceedings from the three suspects earlier held in Kota. [Sources: The Times of India, 23:34 IST, October 20; NDTV, published 23:16 IST October 20, updated 04:40 IST October 21.]

NDTV attributed allegations about arranging and transporting weapons to police. Those alleged roles remain under investigation. Arrests and transit remand are procedural developments, not findings of guilt; this update does not establish motive or wider group involvement.

The Indian Express later reported, citing a senior police officer, that Radha and Babita were arrested at New Delhi Railway Station, while Kunal and Sumit were arrested in Sonipat. NDTV’s updated report gave the same locations. Both outlets attribute alleged weapon-supply roles to police; those allegations remain under investigation and are not findings of guilt. [Sources: The Indian Express, 05:55 IST, October 21; NDTV, updated 04:40 IST, October 21.]

October 20 update: police reports describe advance surveillance

The Indian Express reported on October 20 that CCTV footage and call-data records placed the three accused at the Juhu football ground on October 11. It said footage showed them returning at about 4:30 p.m. on October 18 and checking whether Tiger Shroff had arrived. The report attributed to an officer the suspicion that the earlier visit may have been an abandoned attempt; that remains a police theory, not an established finding. [Source: The Indian Express, updated 08:46 IST, October 20.]

Separately, The Economic Times reported police sources’ account that the accused had conducted reconnaissance for about a month and alleged one of them bought the motorcycle on September 11. The Times of India also reported police sources saying one pistol jammed and two rounds fell to the ground. These are investigative claims reported by the outlets; they do not establish motive, wider group involvement or guilt. [Sources: The Economic Times, 00:09 IST, and The Times of India, updated 12:39 IST, October 20.]

October 20 update: suspects being taken from Kota to Mumbai

As of 16:54 IST on Tuesday, October 20, the three accused were being taken from Kota to Mumbai by road. The Indian Express reported an expected arrival at about 2 a.m. on Wednesday, October 21, and said they were expected to be produced in a Mumbai court that day. Those were projected timings, not confirmation that either step had occurred. [Source: The Indian Express, updated 15:56 IST, October 20.]

Moneycontrol’s 13:05 IST update, citing PTI and quoting Kota Additional SP Subhash Chandra Mishra, also reported that the team had left Kota by road after staying overnight because officers considered night travel unsafe following the journey. It said transit remand had been granted. The transfer is a procedural step; the accused persons’ alleged roles remain under investigation, and no finding of guilt or motive follows from it. [Source: Moneycontrol, first published 12:58 IST, updated 13:05 IST, October 20.]

October 19 update: three suspects held in Kota

Kota police have held three suspects, including a minor, in connection with the firing at Tiger Shroff’s vehicle, according to updated reports by The Indian Express and The Times of India on October 19. The apprehensions followed the FIR registered earlier against three unidentified people.

The Times of India’s refreshed report describes the three as detained and being questioned, with Mumbai Police informed for further legal action. This article uses “held” to avoid implying three formal adult arrests. Their alleged roles remain under investigation, and custody does not establish guilt.

October 19 police briefing: alleged escape plan and suspect contact

Kota Superintendent of Police Tejaswani Gautam said the suspects planned to travel through Delhi and flee to Nepal, according to reports by The Indian Express and Moneycontrol. Both accounts describe their apprehension from a train in Kota and arrangements to hand them over to Mumbai Police.

The officer also described alleged contact between Anil Pandit and one of the suspects. Moneycontrol attributed that account to preliminary questioning, while The Indian Express reported her allegation that Pandit had given instructions. These are attributed police allegations under investigation, not a finding of guilt or proof of the wider conspiracy. This article is withholding suspect names and identifying details, including those of a reported minor.

October 18 attack: two injured, 15 police teams formed

Tiger Shroff escaped without a bullet injury when his car came under fire in Mumbai’s Juhu on Sunday evening, October 18. Updated reports by The Indian Express and The Times of India say two people, including his driver, were injured. Police formed 15 teams to investigate the attack and examine CCTV footage.

Maharashtra minister Ashish Shelar said, “His driver is injured in the attack, he is safe,” according to The Indian Express. The quote refers to the driver’s injury and the actor’s safety; it does not identify the attackers.

Updated reports by The Indian Express and The Times of India describe the second injured person as a bystander who was near the car to see the actor. This clarifies earlier reporting that described both injured people as members of Shroff’s staff. This article continues to omit the second person’s name because spellings differ across the reports.

October 19: FIR registered against three unidentified people

Mumbai Police have registered an FIR against three unidentified people in connection with the firing case, The Indian Express and The Economic Times reported on October 19. The reports list Sections 109(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Sections 3 and 25 of the Arms Act.

The FIR was initially registered against unidentified people. Later on October 19, three suspects were held in Kota, as described in the latest update above. Registration of the case and custody do not establish guilt or verify every claim in the gang-linked message circulating online.

October 19: Shinde meets the Shroff family

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde visited Tiger Shroff and his family at their residence after the firing, The Indian Express and The Times of India reported early on October 19. He condemned the attack and gave assurances about public safety and police action.

The meeting is a government response to the incident. It does not establish who carried out the shooting or verify the claim of responsibility circulating online.

What investigators are examining

The reports place the attack near Pushpa Park in Juhu at around 7 pm. The Indian Express reported that Shroff was leaving after football. Police were pursuing a group of three motorcycle-borne assailants, according to the newspapers.

CCTV footage and forensic examination are central to establishing the sequence and tracing the attackers. The Times of India reported that officers from Juhu police and the Crime Branch were involved. The alleged motive and gang connection remain subjects of investigation.

Publisher-hosted videos and their context

The Indian Express included the following two video posts in its report. They are embedded from the publisher’s own account, with direct links to the original posts. Video credits remain with the publisher and the named recorder where identified.

The second post is described by the newspaper as eyewitness footage. VANILLANEWS has not independently authenticated the recording, identified people in it or verified every detail of its sequence. A separate Times of India report also cautioned that it could not independently verify a circulating clip.

Responsibility claim and police allegations: what remains unresolved

Earlier reports by The Times of India and The Indian Express said police were checking an online message claiming responsibility in the name of the Lawrence Bishnoi group. The later Kota briefing adds a police allegation about contact involving Anil Pandit; it does not independently authenticate every claim made in the circulating message.

The alleged instructions, motive, roles of the suspects and any wider network remain matters for investigation. The distinction between the social-media claim and the officer’s preliminary account is retained here; neither amounts to a judicial finding of guilt.
