The police have released the first footage of the suspects involved in firing shots at Salman Khan’s home. In the clip, two shooters are seen sitting on a bike and firing shots at Galaxy’s apartment. One of the suspects involved is identified as Vishal also known as Kalu. The suspect was earlier arrested for motorcycle theft in 2020 and later sent to Tihar jail.
Suspect’s Background
Vishal, along with another unidentified individual, was spotted riding a motorcycle and firing five rounds at Salman Khan’s Bandra residence. While Vishal’s identity was confirmed through CCTV footage, his accomplice remains unknown. However, Anmol Bishnoi, the brother of incarcerated gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, claimed responsibility for the shooting on social media.
Connections To Lawrence Bishnoi
Vishal has a history of criminal involvement, with his association with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang being particularly notable. Allegedly, he works for gangster Rohit Godara and has been implicated in various criminal activities, including the murder of a bookie named Sachin in Rohtak.
Records indicate that Vishal, a resident of Mahavir Pura in Gurgaon, was arrested in 2020 for motorcycle theft. Subsequently, he was involved in multiple cases of robbery and snatching in 2023, primarily in the Bawana police station area. His criminal activities escalated after his initial arrest, leading to his association with Rohit Godara’s gang.
Gangster Vishal’s association
During his time in Tihar jail, Vishal came into contact with associates of Rohit Godara and decided to join their criminal enterprise. This association further solidified his involvement in organized crime, providing him with the resources and connections necessary for executing violent acts like the recent shooting incident.
Furthermore, Lawrence Bishnoi, in communication with the National Investigation Agency (NIA), expressed his opposition to the D-company and Dawood Ibrahim. He claimed alliances with other incarcerated gangsters who share his sentiments, with plans to collaborate against Dawood’s operations in the future.
Vishal’s criminal background and association with notorious gangs shed light on the complexities of organized crime in Mumbai. The recent shooting incident outside Salman Khan’s residence underscores the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement agencies in combating gang-related violence and maintaining public safety.
