A close associate of the actor had received an email which made reference to a recent interview by jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, wherein he claimed that his life’s goal was to kill the actor.

The Mumbai Police have registered a case against gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi and Goldy Brar in connection with the threat email to Salman Khan.
