Bollywood stars Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan, along with UP CM Yogi Adityanath, have received death threats, prompting police investigations for their safety.
In a shocking series of events, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan, and actor Salman Khan have all received recent death threats. Here’s what we know about each incident so far.
UP CM Yogi Adityanath was given a death threat warning him to resign within ten days, or he would be “killed like Baba Siddique.” This alarming threat has prompted authorities to strengthen his security. ISH News has released a video on this incident for those who want to know more.
Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan received a death threat from an unknown caller who demanded ?50 lakh. The caller, identifying himself as "Hindustani," claimed to be standing outside Shahrukh's Mumbai home, Mannat, and warned that he would kill the actor if he didn’t pay by 8 pm on 5th November 2024.
Upon tracing the call, Mumbai Police found that the number belonged to a person named Faizan Khan from Raipur, Chhattisgarh. When the police team questioned Faizan, he explained that he was a lawyer and that his phone had been stolen on 2nd November 2024. Faizan said he filed a complaint about his missing phone, suspecting it was misused to make the threat call to Shahrukh Khan.
While the investigation is ongoing, no arrests have been made, and Shahrukh Khan has not issued a public statement.
This incident highlights the importance of filing a police complaint for a stolen phone. Filing a complaint is crucial as it helps prevent the misuse of phones in illegal activities like making death threats.
