On Thursday night, the person who sent the death threat to Bollywood megastar Salman Khan and his father, film writer Salim Khan, was identified as Vikram Brar, a close aide of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, police sources said on Thursday.
Shortly after the announcement, a shocking revelation was made by Times Now, alleging that an attempt was made to kill the Bollywood superstar and that a sharpshooter was placed outside the actor's residence.
As per the report, Lawrence Bishnoi, who is a suspect in the Sidhu Moose Wala murder case, sent a sharpshooter with a small-bore weapon in a modified hockey casing to kill Salman Khan. The report alleges that the gangster and his men were tracking the actor's movements and the sharpshooter was aware that the actor heads out to cycle around the neighbourhood, without the company of a bodyguard.
