Earlier on Thursday, the Congress MLA demanded justice for his family but also appealed not to politicise the death of his father. 

NCP leader from Ajit Pawar camp and former Maharashtra minister, Baba Siddique was fatally shot outside Zeeshan's office in Mumbai's Bandra on October 12. He was rushed to Lilavati Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries. 

The assailants had fired six rounds of which two hit his chest. Four arrests have been made so far in connection with the case including two shooters. 

Security Guard Suspended 

The security guard who was deployed for Baba Siddique's protection under the 'Y' category cover has been suspended for not retaliating to the firing at the NCP leader. 

Under the 'Y' category security cover granted to Baba Siddique, a 2+1 arrangement of security guards was made under which two security guards were deployed with him during the daytime and one in the night. 

On the day of the incident, the two security guards were with Baba but one of them left half an hour before the incident took place. The other security guard, Shyam Sonawane said something stung his eyes which made him unable to respond to the firing. 

Sonawane has been suspended for not retaliating to the attack and an internal investigation into the matter is underway.
