Preliminary investigations indicate that Gupta and Pal were allegedly hired by the gang associated with incarcerated gangster Lawrence Bishnoi to carry out the attack. The motive behind the incident is speculated to be Bishnoi's vendetta against Salman Khan, stemming from the 1998 blackbuck hunting incident, which holds significance in the Bishnoi community.
Despite Salman Khan's presence at his residence during the attack, fortunately, no injuries or fatalities were reported. Following the firing, the suspects abandoned their motorcycle near a church, opting for an autorickshaw to reach Bandra railway station. Subsequently, they boarded a train to Santacruz station and hired another autorickshaw to continue their journey.
The incident has brought to light the persistent threats posed by individuals associated with Lawrence Bishnoi and wanted gangster Goldie Brar against Salman Khan. Anmol Bishnoi, Lawrence Bishnoi's brother, claimed responsibility for the attack on social media platforms.
The arrest of the suspects marks a crucial step in the ongoing investigation, shedding light on the complexities of criminal activities and the challenges faced by law enforcement agencies. As the investigation progresses, authorities remain vigilant to ensure the safety and security of all citizens.
