Mumbai: The Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested the 12th accused in the firing case involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff.

The accused was caught from a village in Haryana’s Sonipat district with the help of the local police.

According to reports investigators had tracked his bank account for suspicious transactions which they claim was connected to another defendant in the case.

The probe revealed that Aman had also been paid by Kunal Jaminsingh, who was earlier under arrest in connection with the shootout for allegedly providing a Turkish-made Zigana pistol used in the October 18 attack.

Police believe that Aman withdrew the cash and handed it over to Kunal and are investigating if the cash was used to buy the gun. He is also believed to have taken money from Anil Pandit, said to be a gang member of Lawrence Bishnoi.
