Gun attack on Tiger Shroff: Police custody of five accused extended till November 16

A team has been sent to Haryana to verify Phool Singh’s claim that he is a minor; police said the age-verification report would be submitted on November 18

All accused apprehended in the actor Tiger Shroff firing case are being produced before a court, in Mumbai, Maharashtra, on October 29, 2026.

In a ruling on Wednesday (November 11, 2026), the Special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) holiday court extended the police custody of five accused, including Phool Singh, in the Tiger Shroff firing case until November 16. The other four accused are Rehan, Kunal, Sumit, and Ankit.

The prosecution sought a seven-day extension of their police custody, stating that the accused needed to be confronted with Suneha Pandit, a co-accused in the case, who remains in police custody until November 16.

Police said Pandit allegedly facilitated the transfer of funds to other accused in the case through a bank account linked to an overseas cryptocurrency wallet. Investigators are examining her alleged role in financing the attack.

Of the 13 accused arrested in the case, seven have already been remanded to judicial custody.

During the hearing, the court also permitted the five accused to speak to their parents over the phone and directed that the conversations should not be recorded.

Police informed the court that a team had been sent to Haryana to verify Phool Singh’s claim that he is a minor. The age-verification report would be submitted to the court on November 18, police said.

Singh’s lawyers had earlier submitted a birth certificate and Aadhaar card showing his date of birth as November 30, 2008. On November 6, the special court directed the police to verify his age within 15 days. His lawyers have sought his transfer to a juvenile facility, but the court declined to grant immediate relief pending verification of his age.
