While investigating the recent threats made to superstar Salman Khan through a message sent on the traffic police’s WhatsApp number, the Mumbai Police received another message from the same sender, apologising for the incident. Police sources revealed that the individual claimed that the threat message was sent by mistake and expressed regret for the incident. The police traced the sender’s location to Jharkhand, and a team has been dispatched to apprehend him. 

Sources also stated that the individual initially identified himself as a close associate of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and claimed he could mediate a truce between Khan and the gangster. An officer disclosed that in the threat message sent to the Mumbai Traffic Police’s WhatsApp number, the sender had demanded Rs 5 crore to settle the long-standing feud between Khan and Bishnoi.
