The constable, Shyam Sonawane, was part of the Protection and Security branch and was assigned as Siddique’s bodyguard. He was on duty on October 12, 2024, when Siddique was shot dead outside his son Zeeshan Siddique’s office in Bandra. An internal inquiry found that he failed to respond appropriately during the attack.
Following the incident, he was suspended and served with a show-cause notice. After reviewing his explanation, the department concluded that his conduct amounted to dereliction of duty and terminated his services.
The case remains under investigation, with several arrests already made and legal proceedings underway against the accused.
