Mumbai: Even though two shooters have been arrested in the firing case at the house of Bollywood actor Salman Khan, but now the question arises that how did the Crime Branch of Mumbai Police locate the shooters who had absconded from Mumbai? Actually, the crime branch team had reached Panvel while tracing the number of the bike used in the firing at Salman Khan’s house. The shooters lived in a house on rent in Panvel itself. If Mumbai Police sources are to be believed, the Aadhaar card of the shooters became a call for them and then they were caught.
If Mumbai Police sources are to be believed, during the investigation in Panvel, the Crime Branch got information about a house being rented by the shooters. After this, the Crime Branch team immediately reached the flat where both the shooters lived and interrogated the owner of the flat. During interrogation, the crime branch asked for a copy of the rent agreement from the flat owner, which the flat owner provided. While investigating the rent agreement, the crime branch got a clue which started the countdown of the shooters. And that clue was the original Aadhar card of both the shooters, which they had given to the owner of the flat while making the rent agreement.
… So what is the use; When Salman Khan’s tension increased, he lashed out at the police officers in anger.
Sources said that as soon as the original Aadhaar cards of both the shooters were in their hands, the Mumbai Crime Branch immediately started investigating them and during this, the mobile number linked in that Aadhaar card came into the hands of the Crime Branch. Not only this, the original faces of the shooters were also printed in the minds of the crime branch team. As soon as the mobile number was received, when the Crime Branch of Mumbai Police started tracing its location, it was found that the same mobile number was active near Salman Khan’s house at the time of the firing.
After this, the crime branch started the process of continuously tracing that mobile number. During this tracing, both the shooters were continuously talking to someone from this mobile number. After the conversation, he would switch off the mobile and switch it on when he wanted to talk. After continuously tracing the mobile number and doing its complete technical analysis, when the Crime Branch team became sure that the location of both the shooters was in Bhuj area of Gujarat, then they contacted Gujarat Police and informed about it.
After this, the Crime Branch decided to send two teams from Mumbai to Gujarat, but at that time no flight was available from Mumbai to Bhuj. After this, on one hand the team sent to Barmer was asked to move towards Bhuj, while two teams from Mumbai were sent to Ahmedabad via flight. These two teams were given strict instructions by senior police officers that after reaching Ahmedabad, they would have to reach Bhuj as soon as possible without stopping anywhere. Both these teams did exactly that and reached Bhuj from Ahmedabad non-stop. After this, the Crime Branch teams along with Gujarat Police reached the place where both the shooters were present and arrested them.
