Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Salman Khan faces another life-threatening demand, with the Mumbai traffic police receiving a recent anonymous message demanding Rs 2 crore to spare the actor’s life. This threat marks a continuation of a tense saga, following months of escalating security concerns around Khan due to previous threats allegedly linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
Mumbai police have swiftly responded, registering an FIR against an unidentified individual and launching a full investigation. Heightened security measures surround Khan, particularly after the October 12 murder of former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique. Authorities suggest the threats may stem from ongoing gang tensions; in April, two motorbike-riding shooters opened fire outside Khan’s residence, heightening fear for his safety.
The increasing threats have pushed Khan’s team to bolster his protection, further amplifying security personnel and surveillance around his residence, Galaxy Apartments. Khan has reportedly considered additional security measures to ensure his safety amid these repeated threats. The investigation into the latest incident is ongoing, with authorities striving to trace the origins of the message and neutralize potential risks to the actor and his family.
