Mumbai Police Trace Threat Call to Salman Khan, Identify Caller as ‘Venkatesh’ from Karnataka Amid Rising Security Concerns

Mumbai Police Trace Threat Call Targeting Salman Khan to Karnataka, Caller Identified as ‘Venkatesh’ Amid Ongoing Security Concerns and Past Threats

Bollywood’s acting superstar Salman Khan has once more found himself to be the focal point of a very menacing call that created waves of fear both in the entertainment industry and the police fraternity. This menace arrived on November 7, 2024, in the control room of the traffic police, where the caller threatened that “Salman Khan and Lawrence Bishnoi” were coming to the city. This was a distinction right away and sufficient to wake up Mumbai Police to take action right there.

The trace revealed it was a Karnataka call, and police officials soon identified the caller as one Venkatesh. Mumbai Police have dispatched their team to Karnataka, following up on the investigation and gathering further details in the case. The case has been officially registered at Worli Police Station, and authorities are committed to bringing out the full scope of the threat.

It is not the first time Salman Khan has faced this kind of blackmail. The actor had been facing threat letters related to his connection with the 1998 case of blackbuck poaching. The Bishnoi community, for whom the blackbuck is a sacred animal, nursed a grudge against him for years. The gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, who is still rather au fait with this fraternity, had already declared all his other threats in the years asking for Salman to publicly apologize for the incident, and Bishnoi’s threats have gone to such an extent that he has verbally declared dire consequences for both Salman and his father Salim Khan unless such an apology comes forth.

This is the latest in a disturbing series of threats directed at Bollywood personalities, with Shah Rukh Khan being a victim of an identical type of threat; the actor had received a ransom call from Faizan, who had demanded Rs 50 lakh. Case was registered at Bandra Police Station and a parallel probe is presently being held at Raipur.

These are threats that have come when Bollywood actor Salman Khan hasn’t even started to forgive or forget the tragic murder of political leader Baba Siddique, for which the accused claimed an alleged member of Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang. The same breath with which he intimidated the actor Salman Khan has arisen all the same concerns again. To these mounting threats, the Mumbai Police enhanced Salman Khan’s security, which includes an escort vehicle and a Special Reserve Police Force at his homes in Bandra and Panvel.
With the investigations already on, the public and the film world is expectantly awaiting more news about this disturbing situation.
