In a shocking development, Mumbai Traffic Police have received a death threat directed at Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. The anonymous message, sent via a WhatsApp helpline, warned that the Chief Minister would be assassinated “like Baba Siddique” if he did not resign within ten days. This disturbing threat surfaces just weeks after former minister and NCP leader Baba Siddique was fatally shot in Bandra, raising concerns over the safety of other high-profile figures.
UP CM Yogi Threatened
The Mumbai Police have launched an investigation to track down the sender of the message, examining leads and assessing connections to other recent threats. This case follows a series of death threats against Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who has faced repeated warnings linked to criminal elements, including the infamous Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Earlier this year, gunfire was reported outside Khan’s residence, escalating safety concerns around the actor, whose security has since been significantly enhanced. Police investigations previously led to the arrests of individuals allegedly responsible for threatening the actor, some from regions as far as Jamshedpur and Noida. The suspects were placed in remand for questioning, indicating that the source of these threats may be widespread and well-organized.

The threat message referencing Yogi Adityanath comes amid heightened tensions following the assassination of Baba Siddique on October 12. Siddique, known for his connections in both political and Bollywood circles, was close to Salman Khan, further linking the web of threats against Khan with the broader criminal network potentially responsible for Siddique’s murder. Siddique’s son, Zeeshan Siddique, an MLA from Bandra, was also named in one of the death threats aimed at intimidating the family and its allies.

The Lawrence Bishnoi gang, who claimed responsibility for the murder of Baba Siddique, is allegedly involved in a series of threats and violent incidents against public figures, particularly those linked to Salman Khan. This ongoing wave of intimidation has spurred the Mumbai Police to increase security for both Khan and other high-profile individuals, as investigations intensify to curb these disturbing acts and safeguard targeted figures.
In related news, the crime branch unit of Mumbai police has initiated extradition proceedings to bring Anmol Bishnoi, brother of the imprisoned gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, back from the United States. This action is part of the ongoing investigations connected to the firing incident outside Salman Khan’s Bandra residence, emphasizing the extensive efforts by law enforcement to tackle this violent undercurrent.
