Mumbai Police have struck gold in the Rohit Shetty residence firing case, linking payments to Nepal in a web of intrigue. The Crime Branch disclosed that gunmen were remunerated via ATM cashouts from tainted bank inflows, orchestrated from across the border.
Agra-based arrestees’ financials expose repeated Nepal funding, prompting urgent bank summons for transaction deep-dives. This elevates the Juhu incident from mere gang warfare to a potential terror-financed operation.

Breakthrough beckons as probes accelerate. Unmasking the financiers could dismantle a broader network. For Mumbai’s glitzy film world, this serves as a stark wake-up call, with authorities vowing relentless pursuit till the conspiracy crumbles.
