Latest update on Salman Khan’s case
According to Mumbai Crime Branch today, two suspects from neighbouring New Mumbai City have been apprehended within 24 hours following multiple gunshots fired outside the residence of Salman Khan.
This fresh development comes just a few hours after the case of firing outside Salman Khan's residence was transferred by the Mumbai Police to the Mumbai Crime Branch. More than 10 teams of Mumbai Crime Branch are involved in the investigation.
Who has claimed responsibility for the attack?
Anmol Bishnoi, the younger brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, claimed responsibility for the attack at Salman Khan’s residence. He took responsibility by issuing a statement on Facebook. The police officers are trying to find the location from where this social media post surfaced online.
Meanwhile, Arpita Khan, Sohail Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Sshura Khan, and plenty of other family members gave a quick visit to Salman’s home.
However, this is not the first time that Salman Khan has been threatened by the Bishnoi gang.
Why is the Bishnoi gang threatening Salman Khan?
Lawrence Bishnoi's gang, known as the Bishnoi gang, has a history of threatening Salman Khan, dating back to the notorious 1998 blackbuck poaching incident. The gang believes that Salman Khan was responsible for killing the blackbuck in the incident. For those unfamiliar, Blackbuck is considered sacred and is worshipped in parts of Rajasthan.
