Mumbai Police today claimed to have thwarted a plot to carry out a shooting attack on a city-based builder with the arrest of three suspected henchmen of fugitive gangster Ravi Pujari and seizure of two firearms from them.

Abhishek Salvi (24), Aniket Jadhav (21) and Bharat Ved (23) -- who are from the city and neighbouring Thane district -- were arrested yesterday from suburban Bhandup in connection with the plot, police said.
