Salman Khan gets death threat again, message says pay ₹2 crore

The threats against Bollywood actor Salman Khan have intensified, with recent incidents involving suspected connections to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. This escalation follows the tragic murder of Baba Siddique, a former MLA and father of NCP leader Zeeshan Siddique. The elder Siddique was fatally shot outside his son’s Bandra office on October 12, with the Bishnoi gang reportedly citing his close association with Salman Khan as a contributing factor to the killing. Zeeshan Siddique shared in an interview that after his father’s death, Salman has been particularly concerned about his safety.

Adding to these tensions, the Mumbai Police recently arrested a man from Jamshedpur for issuing a threat to Salman Khan in the name of Lawrence Bishnoi. The suspect had demanded a ransom of ₹5 crore from Khan, sending the message to Mumbai Traffic Police’s control room on October 18. Interestingly, just days later, on October 21, the same sender issued an apology, claiming the threat message was “sent by mistake.”

Mumbai Police, coordinating with local authorities in Jamshedpur, swiftly apprehended the suspect, who is now being brought to Mumbai for further investigation. These incidents mark a troubling series of threats, highlighting the ongoing security risks surrounding Salman Khan.
