Maharashtra: Firing near Salman Khan's house, probe handed over to Crime Branch

Mumbai: Hours after reported firing incident outside Bollywood megastar Salman Khan's Bandra home, the probe into the incident has been handed over to city Crime Branch and various teams have been formed to investigate this case, officials said on Sunday.
 

"We are probing this matter from different angles and one of suspected angle is alleged involvement of Lawrence Bishnoi gang, as actor is under threat from certain Punjab-based mafia groups and in the past couple of years he and his father Salim Khan have been issued death threats in different ways, including dropping of a letter to the family, officials added.
 

Early this morning at around 0500 hours, two unknown persons sporting helmets came speeding on a motorcycle and fired at least four shots in the direction of Salman Khan's home, before zooming off on the dark and deserted road.
 

The police are scanning the close circuit TV camera footage in area to trace out the shooters, check their motives and targets.
 

Salman Khan (58) lives with almost his entire joint family, comprising parents, brothers and their kins at the landmark Galaxy Apartments in picturesque sea-facing area of western suburb of Bandra.
 

For several years, Salim Khan and Salman Khan have been getting death threats, in 2022, while on a morning stroll near his home, Salim Khan found a note saying “Salim Khan…Salman Khan… bahut jald aapka Moose Wala hoga” -- a reference to Sidhu Moose Wala, a Punjabi rapper, who was brutally shot dead near his home on May 29, 2022, shaking the entertainment industry.
 

Following the multiple threats to the Mumbai-based actor, the city police have upgraded the security cover of Salman Khan, plus issued him a permit for a gun licence and last year, the actor acquired a new bullet-proof SUV (sports utility vehicle) as additional protection to move around.
