Bollywood star Salman Khan recently mourned the loss of politician Baba Siddique after he was unfortunately shot outside his office in Bandra East. After that, the actor himself received many death threats which led to an increase in his security. Ahead of the release of his upcoming film Sikandar, Salman opened up about the threats he received from gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and said that he was content with everything and praised the god.
Salman Khan On Lawrence Bishnoi Threats
During a conversation with the media, Salman Khan said, “Bhagwan, Allah sab unpar hai. Jitni umar likhi hai, utni likhi hai. Bas yahi hai. Kabhi kabhi itne logon ko saath mein leke chalna padta hai, bas wohi problem ho jaati hai.” Suspected members of Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang opened fire outside the actor’s Bandra residence in April of last year, while Bishnoi is currently being held in Ahmedabad’s Sabarmati jail in connection with extortion and attempted murder cases. A few weeks later, the Navi Mumbai Police said they had discovered a Bishnoi gang plot to murder Khan as he was travelling to his farmhouse in Panvel, which is close to Mumbai.
In October, a guy threatened to assassinate Salman and Maharashtra NCP leader Zeeshan Siddique if they did not pay the Rs 2 crore owed on the traffic police’s WhatsApp helpline number. The message’s author cautioned that the two would suffer the same fate as Zeeshan Siddique’s father, former state minister Baba Siddique, and that his warning should not be taken lightly. On October 12, three gunmen in the Bandra area shot and killed Baba Siddique.
A person claiming to be Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother threatened Salman again in November and demanded Rs 5 crore. Salman was also urged to apologise in the threat message, presumably for a supposed instance of blackbuck hunting. “Salman Khan should visit our (Bishnoi community) temple and offer an apology or pay Rs 5 crore if he wishes to survive. We will kill him if he doesn’t; our gang is still in operation,” the warning read.
