At 4:55 am on April 14, gunfire was reported outside Salman Khan’s residence in Mumbai. Two individuals were spotted on a motorcycle and fired three shots in the air. The culprits were caught fleeing from the incident on the CCTV footage. Heavy police deployment is currently seen outside the Superstar’s Apartments. Mumbai Police have been on their toes since the incident happened to nab the culprits after viewing the CCTV footage. The incident has been reported at the Bandra Police Station and the process of filing an FIR is underway.
Even last year, Salman Khan was targeted by a death threat from Canada-based fugitive gangster Goldy Brar, who openly announced that the Bollywood superstar was on his gang’s hit list. Earlier in the year, Mumbai Police had filed an FIR against gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi and Goldy Brar, along with another individual, following an email threatening the Dabangg actor at his Mumbai residence.
According to police sources, three rounds were fired during the incident, which occurred around 4.55 am in the morning. The forensic team is expected to arrive at the scene soon to gather evidence. It’s being reported that the Mumbai Police Crime Branch will take over the case. Investigations are underway to determine those involved in the incident.
Salman Khan travels with an elaborate security team, especially since he was subjected to death threats earlier this year. He was granted Y+ security after he reportedly received a death threat from the Bishnoi Gang.
What #SalmanKhan itself has to say about ongoing life-threatening incidents?
Back in April, when he received the threat, Salman said on Aap Ki Adalat, “I am going everywhere with full security. I know whatever is going to happen will happen no matter what you do. I believe that (refers to God) that he is there. It is not that I will start roaming freely, it is not like that. Now there are so many Shera’s around me, so many guns are going around with me that I am myself scared these days.”
