Salman Khan’s mention in Lawrence Bishnoi gang’s public post
Taking responsibility for the killing of Baba Siddique, the Lawrence Bishnoi gang on Facebook shared – “Om, Jai Shri Ram, Jai Bharat. I understand the essence of life and consider wealth and the body as dust. I did only what was right, honouring the duty of friendship.”
“Salman Khan, we did not want this war but you made our brother lose his life. Today the pool of decency of Baba Siddique is closed or at one time he was under MCOCA (Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act) with Dawood. The reason for his death was his links to Dawood and Anuj Thapan in Bollywood, politics, and property dealings.”
“We have no personal enmity with anyone. However, anyone who helps Salman Khan or the Dawood gang should be prepared. If anyone gets any of our brothers killed, we will respond. We never strike first. Jai Shri Ram, Jai Bharat, salute to the martyrs.”
As we speak, the authorities are checking the authenticity of the post. Meanwhile, as aforementioned, Salman Khan and his family have amped up their security.
