Twenty-three-year-old Anuj Thapan, who was one of the accused in firing at actor Salman Khan's house, allegedly died by suicide in police custody in Mumbai on May 1.

However, the deceased's brother, Abhishek Thapan, refused to believe that Anuj could kill himself. 

"Anuj was taken by Mumbai Police from Sangrur 6-7 days ago...Today, we received a call that Anuj had died by suicide. He was not the kind who could have died by suicide. He must have been murdered by police. We want justice. He worked as a truck helper," said Abhishek Thapan.

Anuj Thapan was arrested from Punjab along with Sonu Kumar Bishnoi for allegedly supplying weapons to shooters Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta, who were already arrested, according to police.
