October 19, 2026

KOTA, OCTOBER 19: Police have detained three suspects, including a minor, in Kota, Rajasthan, in connection with the shooting incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai. The detained individuals are expected to be handed over to Mumbai Police for further investigation.

The detentions mark a significant development in the probe into the firing in Mumbai’s Juhu area, where unidentified assailants allegedly opened fire in connection with the incident involving the actor. Investigators have been working to identify those responsible and establish the circumstances and motive behind the attack.

The inclusion of a minor among those detained adds a further dimension to the investigation, with the authorities required to follow the applicable legal procedures governing juveniles. Detention does not by itself establish guilt, and the role of each suspect will need to be determined through the investigation.

The transfer of the suspects to Mumbai Police is expected to help investigators question them and examine possible links to the shooting. Police will also seek to establish whether the detained individuals had a direct role in the attack or were connected to other aspects of the alleged conspiracy.

The incident has drawn attention to security concerns surrounding prominent figures in Mumbai’s entertainment industry. The investigation remains focused on identifying the perpetrators, determining the motive and establishing responsibility through evidence.
