Mumbai man arrested over fresh death threat to Salman Khan demanding Rs. 2 cr as ransom

Mumbai/IBNS: The Mumbai Police Wednesday arrested a man for issuing a threat to kill actor Salman Khan and demanding Rs. 2 crore as ransom, media reports said.

The arrest comes after the Mumbai Traffic Control received a fresh threat earlier in the day which claimed that Salman would be killed if Rs. 2 crore was not paid.

Wednesday's threat was issued a day after a 20-year-old person was arrested from Noida for a similar ultimatum to the actor and NCP (Ajit Pawar) leader Zeeshan Siddique, whose father Baba Siddique was murdered earlier this month by Lawrence Bishnoi gang.

The accused, who has been identified as Shaikh Hussain Shaikh Mausin (24), demanded Rs. 5 crore from the actor to "end the enmity" with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, whose team took the responsibility of the murder of NCP (Ajit Pawar) leader Baba Siddique.

The actor, who was a close friend of Baba Siddique, had his security escalated after the politician's murder.

After Siddique's murder, one of the Bishnoi gang members shared a post on Facebook where he hinted at Siddique's close ties with Salman and links to underworld people that cost him his life.

On the night of April 14, gunfire shook Mumbai's Bandra neighbourhood when two men on motorbikes fired multiple rounds outside Salman Khan's residence.

The attackers, linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, were charged with conspiracy to murder and other serious crimes.
