Actor Salman Khan, who has been repeatedly threatened by incarcerated gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, received yet another email on March 23, warning him of an assault akin to that on Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala. The Mumbai police are looking into the email sent to Salman Khan Films, the actor’s production house, and have detained a person in connection with it from Rajasthan. This is the fourth threat issued by the Bishnoi gang to Khan, the police said. The Mumbai police believe that the gangster is making threats to Khan in order to extort money from him and to frighten other celebrities into paying.
An individual whose email id says ‘Dhakad,’ allegedly sent an email to Salman Khan Films, whose email address is available on its website. “Agla number tera hai tu tayyaar reh, tera haal bhi Siddhu Moosewala jaisa hoga, tu kabhi Jodhpur aake dikha, Bishnoi gang dekhlegi tujhe... Agla number 13 hai tu Jodhpur aa,” the email reads. The Bandra police have been informed about the same, and a case has been registered against unknown persons and gang leader Lawrence Bishnoi.
