Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena leader Abhishek Ghosalkar, 41, the son of former MLA Vinod Ghosalkar, was shot dead in Borivli in suburban Mumbai on February 8 this year during a social media live, allegedly by his old political rival Mauris Noronha, 47, who later died by suicide
Both Baba Siddique and his son Zeeshan were targets. The shooters assassinated Baba Siddique who was a police protectee. Zeeshan had left the office just minutes before the attack otherwise the assailants would have shot him as well

The incident had sent shock waves in Maharashtra politics and prominent Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders including party chief Uddhav Thackeray had attended Ghosalkar's funeral
