During interrogation, Gill admitted to using the hotspot of a labourer named Balwinder, allowing him to appear offline and avoid tracking.

The Crime Branch is currently searching for Gill's mobile phone, which may hold vital evidence related to the case.

Gill hails from Pacca Chisti village in Punjab's Fazilka district. The 22-year-old was held by the Mumbai Crime Branch in coordination with the Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) of the northern state.
