Baba Siddiqui Murder Although the Lawrence Bishnoi gang has taken responsibility for the murder of former Maharashtra minister and NCP leader Baba Siddiqui, the Mumbai Police are not confirming this claim yet. The police have formed 15 teams and started investigating the case from many angles. On the other hand, one of the two accused Gurnail Singh, who was caught by the local people and the police immediately after the murder on Saturday, has been sent to seven days of police custody.
Four people are said to be involved, three arrested.
The Mumbai Police Crime Branch, which is investigating the murder, has told the court about the involvement of four people in this case. Of these, three have been arrested and one is still absconding.
One of the arrested accused Gurnail Singh has been sent to seven days of police custody by the court. The second arrested accused Dharmaraj Kashyap had described himself as a minor, but the ossification test made it clear that he was an adult.
What has happened so far
Soon after the murder of Baba Siddiqui in the Bandra (east) area of Mumbai on Saturday night, two of his three killers were caught by the local people and the police. While the third accused Shivanand alias Shivkumar Gautam was able to escape. While tracking the CCTV of the area, the police saw Shivanand at Panvel station in Raigad, a neighboring district of Mumbai.
The police suspect that from there he is trying to escape to another state by catching a long-distance train. Shivanand had fired six bullets at Baba Siddiqui.
Planning was done from Punjab to Mumbai.
Meanwhile, in the remand paper presented in the Esplanade Court, the police have said that the four accused involved in this murder are Mohammad Zeeshan Akhtar, the fourth accused is said to be.
