Delhi Police Arrest Two Suspects Over Plots Targeting Bollywood Actor and Businessman

One accused, Deepak Singh, was wanted for the October 3 murder of influencer Mad Sandhu in Amritsar and had been hiding in Mumbai. He was allegedly instructed to remain in Mumbai to target Bachchan over purported remarks about the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, which Bachchan denies. The other accused, Vikas Thakur, was arrested in Delhi before carrying out an extortion-related shooting.
