In the investigation into the firing incident at Salman Khan’s residence, Mumbai police Crime Branch officials discovered that the suspects had been in the city for almost a month and were residing in a rented house at Panvel. The accused conducted reconnaissance at Salman Khan’s farmhouse in Panvel and, for the last four days, they also scouted the areas around Galaxy Apartment to plan the firing. Police found that the suspects had only intended to threaten Salman Khan in order to gain publicity and give him a warning.
The Crime Branch officials also identified the two suspects as natives of Bihar, claiming to be associated with the arrested accused Lawrence Bishnoi, who is currently in Tihar jail. They sent a team to Bihar to track down the suspects. Sources from the Crime Branch revealed to mid-day that Salman Khan informed the police that he and his parents were sleeping at home during the firing and were suddenly awakened by alerts from the bodyguards.
