A Mumbai magistrate court on October 21, 2026, remanded three accused in the firing incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff to police custody until October 31, 2026. The accused were brought to Mumbai from Kota, Rajasthan, before being produced before the court.
Police Seek Custody for Further Investigation
The accused have been identified as Rehan alias Sukka, Ritik Kurmi alias Roshan, and Phool Singh. According to reports, Mumbai Police sought their custody for further investigation into the alleged conspiracy behind the incident, recovery of the firearms used, and the circumstances surrounding the alleged destruction of two mobile phones.
The prosecution reportedly submitted that custodial interrogation was necessary to establish the motive, identify other persons potentially involved, and trace the weapons. The defence opposed the request, arguing that the accused had already been interrogated during transit remand and that further police custody was not necessary for the stated purposes.
Firing Incident in Juhu
The firing took place in Mumbai's Juhu area on October 18, 2026. According to police accounts reported by the media, assailants fired several rounds at a car associated with Tiger Shroff before fleeing on a motorcycle. The actor reportedly escaped without major injuries, while his driver and a bystander sustained injuries.
The police subsequently registered a case involving allegations of attempted murder and offences under the Arms Act, 1959. Investigators are examining the alleged involvement of additional persons and the source of the firearms.
Court Orders Police Custody Until October 31
After hearing the prosecution and defence, the magistrate court remanded the three accused to police custody until October 31, 2026. The order allows investigators to continue questioning the accused and pursue the outstanding investigative leads.
The allegations remain subject to investigation and judicial proceedings. The remand order is not a finding of guilt, and the accused retain their legal rights and the presumption of innocence.
