Zeeshan Siddiqui, the son of the late NCP leader Baba Siddique, recently faced threats directed towards him and actor Salman Khan. The Mumbai Police took swift action and arrested a 21-year-old man from Uttar Pradesh’s Noida in connection to the threatening messages. The accused, Mohammed Tayyab, is currently being questioned to determine the motive behind his actions.

This incident comes in the wake of a previous threat message received by Mumbai traffic police’s WhatsApp helpline demanding a ransom from the actor. The police were able to track down the sender, Shaikh Hussain Shaikh Mausin, a vegetable seller from Jamshedpur. Additionally, the police received an “apology” from the same number, indicating a possible change of heart from the sender.

It is important to note that Salman Khan has been a target of threats in the past, particularly from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The gang members had previously fired shots outside the actor’s Bandra home, prompting increased security measures for Khan. The recent threats towards Zeeshan Siddiqui and Salman Khan highlight the persistent challenges faced by public figures in maintaining their safety and security.

In a tragic turn of events, Baba Siddique was shot dead near his son’s office in Nirmal Nagar, Mumbai. Nine individuals have been arrested in connection to the murder, with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang claiming responsibility for the heinous act. The suspected shooters were reportedly in contact with the gangster’s brother before carrying out the killing.

The swift response from the Mumbai Police in apprehending the individuals responsible for the threats and the murder is commendable. It underscores the importance of law enforcement agencies in ensuring the safety of citizens and public figures alike. The ongoing investigation will hopefully shed light on the motives behind these criminal acts and bring justice to the victims and their families.
