Bollywood actor Salman Khan‘s father, Salim Khan, was subjected to a new threat on Thursday morning while on a walk near his Bandra residence. According to reports, a man and a woman in a burqa, riding a scooter, approached Salim Khan and issued a threat, citing the name of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.

The woman reportedly asked, “Should I send Lawrence Bishnoi?”, while Salim Khan was sitting on a bench. The incident has prompted a swift investigation by the Mumbai Police, who are searching for the individuals involved.
Bishnoi gang history with Salman Khan
This is not the first time Salman Khan has faced threats from the Bishnoi gang. In June of this year, police successfully foiled a plot to kill the actor at his Panvel farmhouse. Four shooters affiliated with the gang were arrested in connection with the attempted murder.
In April, another shooting incident occurred outside Salman Khan’s Bandra home, with two assailants firing multiple rounds. Although no one was injured, fugitive gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother, Anmol Bishnoi, claimed responsibility for the attack.
Was the attack a conspiracy?
Navi Mumbai Circle DCP Vivek Pansare revealed that the arrested individuals had conducted reconnaissance of both Salman Khan’s farmhouse and his Bandra residence, indicating a well-planned conspiracy.
He also mentioned that over 20 people were involved in the plot, with the arrested men playing key roles in the planning and execution of the attempted attacks.
