Chandigarh, Oct 19 (UNI) The father of US-based gangster Anil Pandit, who claimed responsibility for the firing targeting Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai, is a priest whose family lives in rented accommodation in Haryana, while one of the suspected shooters had recently been released from jail in an illegal arms case, according to relatives and residents.
The revelations have brought the family backgrounds and alleged criminal histories of the suspects into focus, with two suspected shooters, including a 17-year-old boy, traced to Sonipat district in Haryana.
Pandit, originally from Rer Kalan village in Panipat district, allegedly operates from California and is associated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. He recently released an audio message claiming responsibility for the attack along with his associate Harman Sandhu.
