    After news broke that a death threat has been issued against actor Salman Khan and his father, writer Salim Khan, the Mumbai Police have launched a probe in the matter. Here are all the developments in the case so far. Image Credit: Gulf News Archives

    Salim Khan and Salman Khan

    Salman Khan and Sonali Bendre in Hum Saath Saath Hain
    This latest incident comes days after Salman’s security was tightened the first time following Moosewala’s murder. The connection, for those wondering, is gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, who is currently lodged in Tihar jail, and has emerged as a key accused in Moosewala’s murder. In 2018, Bishnoi had threatened to kill Salman following the actor’s involvement in the Blackbuck illegal poaching case during the shooting of ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ in Rajasthan in 1998. “We will kill Salman Khan in Jodhpur.” Bishnoi had said at the time. “Everyone will know once we take action.” Blackbucks are considered sacred by the Bishnoi community of Rajasthan. | Still from 'Hum Saath Saath Hain' Image Credit: Rajashri Productions
