A Canadian-habitating gangster who is also on India’s Most Wanted list, Anmol was instrumental in motivating the shooters and facilitated the delivery of weapons in Panvel to them on March 15, 2024. He was also found to be providing them with details about the target and instructing them closely about how to carry out the shooting at Salman’s Galaxy Apartment.
