Bookie Zahid Mihir alias Chhote Mian and Sayyed Arshad Abrar Hussain died after five gunmen came in a white Maruti 800 and fired six rounds.

It is believed that members of the Rajan gang took advantage of the infighting within the D-Company and killed Zahid, who was close to Chhota Shakeel, Dawood's right-hand man. Shakeel, however, is Rajan's arch-rival.
It was earlier believed that members of the Mohammed Irfan Khan gang that operate as the Chindi gang killed Dawood's henchmen to avenge their mentor's murder.
Slain informer Chindi was close to Rajan and his death in April could have upset the latter. However, informers say Chindi's associates could not have carried out such a daring act in Dawood's stronghold.

Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Rakesh Maria said the murder could be a fallout of Chindi's murder or related to betting and monetary disputes.
