For the unversed, the attack at Salman Khan’s Galaxy Apartments house in Bandra area took place on April 14, when two assailants on a bike opened fire. They fired two shots towards Khan's apartment before fleeing the scene. The two shooters were later apprehended by the police, and were found to have connections to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. 

Following the incident, four people – Anuj Thapan, Sonu Bishnoi, alleged shooters Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta –  were nabbed by the police. Thapan and Sonu Bishnoi (32) were arrested from Fazilka in Punjab on April 26. The two were believed to have supplied weapons for the shooting at Salman Khan's residence.

With Anuj Thapan's arrest on April 26, a breakthrough into the network responsible for providing weapons for the attack was made possible. However, on May 1, Anuj Thapan committed suicide by allegedly hanging himself in the toilet inside police commissioner's office compound in Mumbai. He was rushed to state-run Gokuldas Tejpal Hospital, but was declared dead. His family has now moved the Bombay High Court seeking a CBI probe into his death, and his mother, Rita Devi, alleged foul play.
