Another attack planned on Salman Khan at his farmhouse: Indian media

 

 

 

Weeks after firing outside his Mumbai home, the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang has planned another attack on Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, reportedly at his Panvel farmhouse.

 

 

As per the reports from Indian news agencies, another attempted attack was planned on Salman Khan while he was on his way to his Panvel farmhouse, disclosed the Mumbai police.

The officials also confirmed that four members of the Bishnoi gang were arrested last week under suspicion of plotting a second attack.

Deputy Commissioner of Police Vivek Pansare shared that the arrested accused, identified as Dhananjay Tapesingh alias Ajay Kashyap, Gaurav Bhatia alias Nahvi, Vapsi Khan alias Waseem Chikna and Rizwan Khan, stayed in Panvel and had been planning to target the ‘Tiger 3’ star for a long time. “Bishnoi has several groups working independently of each other, and we suspect one gang was conducting a recce in Panvel while the other was in Mumbai,” he stated.

Reports also suggest that one of the accused was in touch with someone to buy AK-47 guns for the attack and had planned to hide, before meeting in Kanyakumari to leave the country for Sri Lanka.

 

 

 

 

Firing at Salman Khan’s house

Earlier, the two bike-borne assailants fired five rounds outside Khan’s residence in Galaxy apartment of Bandra on April 14, out of which one bullet landed on the balcony in his residence.

Hours after the shocking event, Anmol, brother of Indian gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, claimed responsibility for the incident in a social media post. The purported post by him read, “Salman Khan, do not take us lightly. This firing incident was just a trailer so that you understand our strength.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

The crime branch of Mumbai Police arrested at least six accused of the gang, for their involvement in the Bandra firing case.

For the unversed, Bishnoi had openly admitted to plans of eliminating Khan for killing a black buck [which is considered sacred by the Bishnoi community] in 1998.
