In a recent development regarding the ongoing Salman Khan death threat case, the unidentified individual responsible for sending an extortion message of Rs 5 crore to the Mumbai Traffic Police has come forward with apologies. The message, which demanded payment to settle a feud between actor Salman Khan and gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, was sent on October 17. The individual has now claimed the message was sent “by mistake”.

Details of the threat and apology

The threat message, which was initially said to have been sent by a member of the Bishnoi gang, reportedly warned that Salman Khan’s fate would be worse than that of former MP Baba Siddiqui, who was recently assassinated. The message shocked authorities and the public, prompting police to act quickly.

However, shortly after sending the extortion request, the same individual sent a follow-up message apologizing for the initial threat. According to this person, the post was a mistake and they expressed regret for the entire incident. Despite the apologies, the police are not taking the situation lightly.

Police investigation and origin of the message

The Mumbai Police is actively investigating the matter and has traced the origin of the message to Jharkhand. A police team has been dispatched to the state to locate the sender and determine his motives. Faced with the seriousness of the situation, the authorities remain vigilant, especially since this is not the first time that Salman Khan has been involved in such threats.

A police officer handling the case stressed the importance of understanding the intentions behind the threat, despite the excuses. “We are treating this as a serious matter and will make every effort to identify and question the person responsible for sending the messages.”

Salman Khan’s story with threats

This is not the first time that Salman Khan has been targeted by such threats. His past conflicts with criminal elements, particularly the Bishnoi gang, have made him a frequent target of extortion demands and threats. In recent years, law enforcement was on alert whenever his name appeared in such cases.

Authorities are investigating whether the sender has ties to the Bishnoi gang or whether the message was indeed sent unintentionally, as authorities claim. Depending on their findings, the police may take further action.
