Mumbai Police have successfully cracked a mysterious shooting incident in Lokhandwala by using artificial intelligence, leading to the arrest of actor and filmmaker Kamaal Rashid Khan, popularly known as KRK. The case had initially baffled investigators due to the absence of eyewitnesses, CCTV footage, or audible gunshot reports from residents.
The incident came to light on January 18 when residents of Nalanda Society in Lokhandwala noticed bullet marks inside two separate apartments. One flat belonged to writer Neeraj Mishra, while the other was owned by model Prateek Baid. Fortunately, no one was injured, but the unexplained damage caused panic among residents and prompted an immediate police investigation.
