Gupta, along with others, was arrested in connection with the incident that took place on April 14 outside Salman Khan’s Galaxy Apartments. He and co-accused Sagar Pal were involved in the firing while riding a motorcycle.
Gupta filed the petition through his lawyers Amit Mishra and Pankaj Ghildiyal.
Opposing his bail plea, the police argued that the crime was carried out under the direction of Lawrence Bishnoi, through a syndicate run by the jailed gangster.
The police also informed the court that if granted bail, there is a strong possibility that Gupta would inform Lawrence Bishnoi about the investigation conducted during custody and could potentially destroy evidence that is yet to be recovered.
