The men accused of the killing include Priyavrat, alias Fauziജ (main shooter), Kashish, alias Kuldeep (shooteꦍr), Deepak, alias Tinu (close aide of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi), and Keshav Kumar (who provided a vehicle and helped in escaping shooters). The police were granted transit remand of the accused last week.
Three of the accused including Fauzi were arrested on June 19 from Kutch in Gujarat. The police had initially said that Fauzi was the main shooter and executioner of the murder.
