Hours after the shocking incident of firing outside actor Salman Khan’s Bandra residence, Mumbai Police swung into action. Multiple steps have been taken and security has been increased outside the actor’s Galaxy apartment.
Apart from increasing the security outside Salman Khan’s residence, Mumbai Police have also registered a case against an unknown person. Police have started the hunt for shooters and formed several teams to nab the accused. Mumbai Police have also recorded the statements of more than 5 people in connection with the case. A Mumbai Police officer said that Salman Khan was present in his house when the firing took place.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde had a telephone conversation with Salman Khan regarding the firing incident. Shinde also held discussions with the Mumbai Police Commissioner and suggested increasing the security of the Bollywood actor.
This is the second time Salman Khan has been under threat. Earlier, the superstar received death threats in 2023. Mumbai Police had filed an FIR against gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi and Goldy Brar in March 2023 after they allegedly sent the threat via mail to the actor's office. The police, in September 2023, had also reviewed the security outside Khan's house, asking him to be alert.
Even though the actor does not have any film release scheduled in 2024, the ‘Sultan’ actor recently announced the title of his next film ‘Sikandar’ in collaboration with A R Murugadoss. The superstar was recently seen on Eid when he came out to his balcony to greet his hundreds of fans.
