Man Who Threatened Salman Was Arrested

A 32-year-old man, Bhikha Ram (alias Vikram), from Rajasthan was arrested in Karnataka for threatening to kill Bollywood actor Salman Khan. The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) coordinated with Karnataka Police to apprehend the accused in Haveri, where he had recently been staying and working on construction sites. 

Allegedly inspired by gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, Ram called Mumbai Police with a demand that Khan pay Rs 5 crore or apologize at their temple, threatening harm if not complied. Police said Ram claimed to be Bishnoi’s “brother” and issued the threat while watching regional news. Following his arrest, he was handed over to Maharashtra Police for further investigation and interrogation. 

A case has been registered at Worli police station, and the accused is being transported to Mumbai for trial. Meanwhile, Khan continues filming Bigg Boss 18 and preparing for his upcoming film Sikandar.
