The arrests of two suspects from Gujarat on Tuesday for allegedly firing at actor Salman Khan‘s Bandra residence on Sunday saw different agencies trying to take the credit for “cracking the case“.
Immediately after Mumbai crime branch announced a press conference on the arrests on Tuesday, Bandra police, which had initially registered an offence against the accused, were quick to call it a “joint operation”.
Bandra police said the crime branch had succeeded in arresting the duo only after they had provided basic information. Crime branch officials rubbished this, saying after home department transferred the case to them, local police held back information. Meanwhile, Bhuj police issued a press note stating, “Based on technical work and activation of private network information received, we arrested them and handed over them to Mumbai crime branch.”
