Sunil V Gaikwad, the sharpshooter who was involved in the attack on Bollywood filmmaker Rakesh Roshan has been arrested in Thane, Maharashtra.
The 52-year-old Gaikwad was nabbed from Parsik Circle area in Kalwa around 9 pm on Friday almost three months after he jumped parole, said a senior official on Saturday.
The accused had been sentenced to life imprisonment in a murder case and was lodged at Nashik central jail. However, he came out on a 28-day parole on June 26 this year.
Rakesh Roshan was allegedly shot at outside his Santa Cruz office in the western suburbs of Mumbai in January 2000. The assailants had fired six rounds, of which two bullets had hit Roshan.
