Mumbai: Bollywood actor Salman Khan received a fresh death threat, following which the Mumbai Police on Monday registered a case against unknown persons.
According to the police, a case under certain sections of the BNS Act was registered after the police received a message on the WhatsApp number of the Mumbai Traffic Police. The message warned of killing the actor by entering his house and also included a threat to blow up his car with a bomb.
Khan already has a state security cover owing to multiple threats and attempts on his life by members of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. In April last year, two youths riding a motorbike fired five rounds at the actor's residence in Mumbai's Bandra West.
Subsequently, in October, former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique was shot outside his son Zeeshan Siddique's office in Bandra.
In the 4,590-page charge sheet filed in Siddique's murder case, the police attributed the killing of the former minister to multiple possible reasons, including his proximity to Khan, who has been on the group's radar for allegedly shooting a black buck considered holy by the Bishnoi community and the group trying to "reign terror and establish their dominance in the extortion business" in Mumbai.
