(close aide of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi), and Keshav Kumar (who provided vehicle and helped in escaping shooters), according to an official statement. The court said in its order that as

the arrested have been accused of committing a cognisable offence, the transit remand was granted to produce them before the court concerned as early as possible. The order further stated

that a medical examination of the accused be conducted as per rules and guidelines laid down by the Supreme Court. The Delhi Police had arrested three people, including Fauzi, on June 19
