Baba Siddique Murder Highlights: Former Maharashtra Minister and senior NCP leader Baba Siddique's murder has erupted a political storm with many political leaders questioning the law and order in the state.

The senior NCP leader was shot dead by three assailants in Mumbai on Saturday. The police are investigating multiple angles behind Baba Siddique's killing, from contract killing to rivalry. According to NDTV report, Lawrence Bishnoi gang has taken the responsibility of shooting the former Maharashtra minister.  

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde informed that apart from the two persons arrested after the incident, the police are searching for the third accused in Baba Siddique's murder case.

Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who also holds the home portfolio, visited at Lilavati Hospital after the incident. 

NCP President and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar said that the firing incident is unfortunate, condemnable and painful. "I am shocked to learn about his death," said Pawar. 

Who are the two shooters arrested in Baba Siddiqui's murder case?

The police have arrested two persons accused of the crime. One is Gurmail Singh (23), from Haryana, and the other is Dharamraj Kashyap (19), from Uttar Pradesh. The accused had done a recce of Baba Siddiqui's house and office premises, and they had been living in Mumbai for one and a half to two months, said Mumbai Police on Sunday.

Congress-turned-BJP leader Ashok Chavan said he had worked with Siddique when both were in the grand old party, adding the news was shocking.

Lawrence Bishnoi connection with Baba Siddique's murder

According to an NDTV report, the shooters behind the NCP leader's murder claimed that they are a part of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. So far, there has been no official statement by the police in Bishnoi gang's involvement. According to the probe, the shooters were living in Mumbai for past few months and had performed recce multiple times.

“They had received arms delivery a few days ago. The accused have been questioned by Mumbai Crime Branch officials for the last eight hours," ANI quoted Mumbai Police on Sunday.

Shiv Sena UBT leader and Worli MLA Aaditya Thackeray termed the incident as a complete collapse of administration, law and order. Calling it a very disturbing incident, Shiv Sena UBT's Priyanka Chaturvedi asked if there is any law and order in Mumbai.
