The shooters of NCP leader and former MLA Baba Siddique had been living in a rented house in a Kurla village since September. Local residents were shocked when the suspects’ faces appeared on television and social media on Sunday. Neighbours had believed the three youths were either working in call centres or pursuing higher education.
 
Two suspects, Gurmil Baljit Singh, 23, and a UP resident claiming to be a minor, were arrested by the Nirmal Nagar police and handed over to the Crime Branch. The third accused, Shivkumar Gautam, 23, remains absconding. Residents told mid-day that the suspects spoke English fluently and had recently bought a second-hand bike from Pune. They also paid double the usual rent to their landlord. When police searched their residence, they found only 30-40 empty alcohol bottles and some clothes.
