Singh has been running a scrap business in the BKC area for the past eight years. After seeing the news, he relocated his base, moving from BKC to Belapur in Navi Mumbai, where he was looking for a shop to continue his scrap business. Singh avoided returning to his hometown of Udaipur, fearing that the police might track him there.
According to the sources, six days ago, he set up a new scrap shop in Belapur. Around two-and-a-half months ago, Kanojia, an accused living in Panvel, went to Udaipur to procure weapons. During that time, Singh arranged for his accommodation and logistics. However, since weapons were not available in Udaipur, Kanojia traveled to Surat, with Singh accompanying him. Eventually, when the weapons were secured in Udaipur, Singh guided Kanojia on how to safely transport them to Mumbai. This information was revealed during the investigation. The police have seized a mobile phone from Singh, who is married and has children.
