Salman Khan Death Threat: Mumbai Police reveals the suspect is the 26-year-old 'mentally unstable man' by Gujarat | Today news

Salman Khan Death Threats: Mumbai police registered a fir after receiving a danger of death against the actor Salman Khan on the WhatsApp number of the World Traffic Chamber. The message warned that he had killed the actor at his home and planted a bomb in his vehicle. Investigators traced the sender to a 26-year-old man from a village near Vadodara, Gujarat. The suspect, reportedly undergoing spiritually unstable and treatment, issued a notice within 2-3 days to appear before World Police. Police continue their investigation into the case. Salman Khan was on the hit list of Gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, with multiple threats received in recent months. Improved safety measures were implemented for the actor after these incidents. An unidentified person threatened to blow up the car of actor Salman Khan with a bomb and attack the Y-Plus Protect Tea by entering his home, who asked Mumbai police to tighten safety and register a case. The unidentified person sent the message to the Mumbai Traffic Police’s WhatsApp help on Sunday morning, officials said on Monday. According to a police officer, the sender threatened to blow up Khan’s car and attack him at his home. Worli police have registered a case against the unidentified individual in terms of section 351 (2) (3) (criminal intimidation) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. An investigation has been launched. In response to the threat, police sharpened the security outside Khan’s home in Bandra and strengthened patrol in the area. It is striking that two individuals transferred by the motorcycle opened a year ago outside Khan’s home and fired four rounds outside the Galaxy Apartments in Bandra, where the actor lives. Khan previously faced threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, which warned him against consequences if he did not apologize to the Bishnoi community for the alleged murder of a black goat. After these threats, Mumbai police provided him with Y-Plus security. Weeks after the shooting incident last year, Navi Mumbai police claimed to uncover a plot by the Bishnoi gang to kill Khan as he traveled to his farmhouse in Panvel near Mumbai.
