Salman Khan receives another threat from Lawrence Bishnoi gang — ‘If he wants to stay alive he should…’
Salman Khan has received another threat linked to Lawrence Bishnoi, demanding an apology or ₹5 crore for his safety. The message warns of potential violence if the demands are not met.
Actor Salman Khan received another threat from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang on Tuesday, Mumbai Police Traffic Control officials said.
“This is Lawrence Bishnoi's brother. If Salman Khan wants to stay alive, he should go to our temple and apologise or give ₹5 crore. If he does not do this, we will kill him. Our gang is still active,” the message read, according to the Mumbai Police officials.
The threat message was received on the Mumbai traffic police helpline, and an officer read it around midnight, newswire PTI reported, quoting an official. The latest threat for the Bollywood actor comes just a month after receiving a similar threat from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang on October 29, demanding to pay ₹2 crore.
The Bishnoi community and Salman Khan have been in a tussle since Khan was accused of killing a black buck when he went to shoot for ‘Hum Saath Saath Hai’ in Rajasthan in 1998. Ever since the gangster Lawrence Bishnoi has taken it upon himself to kill Salman Khan.
Salman Khan previous death threats
Last month, the Mumbai Police arrested a man from Noida in Uttar Pradesh for allegedly issuing a death threat to Salman Khan and NCP leader Zeeshan Siddique, whose father Baba Siddique, was shot dead outside his office by three gunmen on October 12, 2024, in Bandra.
In April 2024, the Navi Mumbai Police registered another case against 18 identified and other unidentified members of the Bishnoi gang for allegedly hatching a conspiracy to kill Salman Khan at his farmhouse at Panvel near Mumbai. The development followed a firing outside the actor's Bandra residence in Mumbai by Bishnoi gang members.
The sender claimed, “Don't take it lightly, if Salman Khan wants to stay alive and wants to end the enmity with Lawrence Bishnoi, then he will have to pay ₹5 crore. If the money is not given, Salman Khan's condition will be worse than Baba Siddique.”
However, a few days later, the Mumbai traffic police received an apology from a mobile phone number that was earlier used to send the threatening message, officials were quoted as saying by PTI.
