We will track down the accused, do not worry: CM Fadnavis assures Tiger Shroff

Mumbai, Oct 19 (UNI) Reassuring the film fraternity following a brazen daylight shooting targeting Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff's vehicle, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday declared that the government stands firmly with the actor and vowed to track down the culprits no matter where they are hiding.
"We are all with you. We will track down the accused soon. Do not worry," CM Fadnavis said, addressing the security situation after unidentified motorcycle-borne assailants opened a flurry of gunfire on the actor's car in Mumbai's upscale Juhu area on Sunday evening.
The attack left the actor's driver and a bystander injured, while Tiger Shroff narrowly escaped physical harm. The high-profile incident has sent shockwaves through the entertainment capital and triggered intense political reactions.
Addressing a press conference, Fadnavis revealed that Mumbai Police have made major breakthroughs overnight, gathering crucial clues and identifying key suspects. He warned that criminals and their masterminds operating from outside the state or country will be hunted down and their networks dismantled in coordination with central agencies and other state police forces.
The investigation into the case has been officially handed over to the Mumbai Crime Branch, with over 15 specialised tactical teams deployed to comb the region. Security has been significantly tightened across celebrity residences in the city, while law enforcement agencies continue their aggressive manhunt.
