Salman Khan Receives New Death Threat, Police Investigate Source

A WhatsApp message threatening to attack the Bollywood actor at his Bandra residence and blow up his car has prompted heightened security and a police investigation.

  • Bollywood actor Salman Khan received a death threat via WhatsApp on the Mumbai Traffic Police helpline, warning of an attack on his Bandra residence and a bomb targeting his car.
  • The Worli Police have registered a case under criminal intimidation laws and are working with the Mumbai Crime Branch to trace the sender of the message.
  • This is the latest in a series of threats against Salman Khan, many of which are linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and a decades-old blackbuck poaching controversy.
  • The actor has previously faced violent incidents, including shots fired at his residence in April 2024, and has since implemented enhanced security measures such as bulletproof glass at his home.
  • Authorities continue to investigate the origins of the latest threat while maintaining elevated security around Khan's residence to ensure his safety.
