ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException while creating a shaded jar with minimJar parameter

I am getting an error while creating a shaded jar with maven-shade plugin. I tried to debug the error using mvnDebug but it doesn't help. My ultimate goal was to keep the can size to a minimum. Any option other than minimJar is also welcome.

Thank you in advance

Error creating shaded jar: 6952
