A Mumbai police team taking the accused for shooting at actor Tiger Shroff turned back and decided to spend the night in Kota after they suspected someone was following them, sources have said.
Mumbai police identified the accused as Phool Singh (18), Hrithik Mahto (22) and Rehan Rahisuddin (18).
In the evening, Mumbai police had initially left Kota with the accused after producing them in court.
Kota Additional Superintendent of Police Subhash Chandra Mishra said, “We handed them over to the Mumbai police, which obtained a transit remand and had a medical examination conducted on the accused.”
A local court had granted the Mumbai police custody for two days.
Sources said that the Mumbai police left Kota in the evening, “but some people were allegedly following them, so they (the police team) stopped at a police station and then returned to Kota”.
Officials said the team will leave for Mumbai again “once they’re satisfied” with the security arrangements, which is likely to include an escort by the Rajasthan police.
