Irwin's car and Verma was the backup: if Kapoor had missed, Verma would throw another bomb. That night, the Viceroy sent his car to drop three women somewhere. Rajguru noticed this and he didn't give any signal but was later praised by all the revolutionaries for avoiding the indiscriminate assassinations. After the environment in Delhi heated up after the assembly bombings, the bomb factory was shifted to Saharanpur by Kapoor, Verma and Gaya Prasad Katiyar and others. Their plan was to run the bomb factory in the guise of a dispensary. Verma and Kapoor were the compounders. Kishori Lal, Sukhdev Thapar and others were also present. The lack of funds and the movements of these three soon made the locals and the police suspicious. Soon, Mathura Dutt Joshi, the Deputy Superintendent of Police ordered a raid on the factory and all were arrested. They were then sent to Lahore and tried under the infamous Lahore Conspiracy Case. He was sent to the Kala Pani. He expressed the desire to meet Singh and other associates for last time. Singh handed over his brand new shoes to Kapoor saying that the police would take them anyway, at least, Kapoor could use them. He preserved them as a souvenir. Kapoor was released after 16 years (just a couple of years before India attained independence). Death Kapoor died naturally on 19 September 1994 in India, aged 86. In popular culture In the movie The Legend of Bhagat Singh, Sunil Grover portrayed Jaidev Kapoor.
