Mumbai, Jodhpur police arrest man who threatened Salman Khan
Mumbai/Jodhpur (IANS) | The Mumbai Police, in a joint operation with the Jodhpur Police, arrested a man from Rajasthan who allegedly sent an email threatening to kill Bollywood megastar Salman Khan. An official gave this information here on Sunday. Jodhpur’s Luni police officials said that an FIR was registered in this case by the Bandra police on March 18 against a 21-year-old youth, Dhakadram Bishnoi.
In the investigation, the Mumbai Police traced the threatening email to Rajasthan and shared the information with the Jodhpur Police, who tracked it to Bishnoi.
After locating his whereabouts, a joint raid was conducted in Luni and Bishnoi was arrested, officials said here.
The Bandra Police Station team has brought the accused to Mumbai for further investigation.
The youth is also wanted by the Punjab Police in different cases and has a few cases registered against him in that state.
Significantly, a week ago, the Bandra police had registered an FIR against mafia Lawrence Bishnoi, his associates Goldie Brar and Rohit for a threatening e-mail sent to a close friend of the actor.
It quoted an interview of mafia don Lawrence Bishnoi, in which he made a scathing claim that ‘the purpose of his life was to kill Salman Khan’.
The email in Hindi was from Rohit Garg, who wanted to talk to the actor and the police booked him too after a complaint from Salman Khan’s team.
The email also advised that if Salman had not seen Bishnoi’s interview, he should watch it, and that if he wanted to close the case, he should have a face-to-face talk with Garg and Brar, and He (Garg) will arrange it.
Bandra Police immediately swung into action, beefed up security outside Salman’s house in Bandra West and registered an FIR against the accused.
