Mumbai Court Denies Bail in Salman Khan Shooting

A special MCOCA court in Mumbai has denied bail to Vicky Gupta, one of the primary accused in the shooting incident outside Bollywood actor Salman Khan's Bandra residence in April. Gupta, along with Sagar Pal, allegedly fired several rounds at Khan's home under the orders of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and his Canadian cousin Anmol Bishnoi. The prosecution argued that Gupta was in constant communication with the Bishnois and purchased the motorcycle used in the crime. Police oppose Gupta's bail, fearing he may tamper with evidence or alert Bishnoi's syndicate about ongoing investigations. Gupta's defense claimed that he was influenced by Bishnoi's media persona and was unaware of the criminal intent behind his actions. The court's decision highlights the case's severity and ongoing investigation efforts.
