Salman Khan Must Tender Public Apology Or Bishnois Will Kill Him: Lawrence Bishnoi Tells Delhi Cops

Gangster Lawrence Bishnoi who is currently in the jail, has told Delhi Police in an interrogation that his community will never forgive Bollywood superstar Salman Khan for killing blackbuck. He also stated that the actor and his father Salim Khan will have to render a public apology in Jambaji temple or else the Bishnoi community will kill them.

HGS Dhaliwal, special commissioner (special cell) told Hindustan Times, "During interrogation, he candidly said that since the Bishnois consider the blackbuck to be the reincarnation of their religious guru, Bhagwan Jambeshwar also known as Jambaji, acquittal or punishment from the court will not be the last verdict for him. He also said the actor and his father either tender public apology in Jambaji temple or the Bishnois will kill them."

The report further stated that as per a senior police officer, about a week ago, Bishnoi made confessions during his probe in connection with the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, Hastimal Sarashwat who is Salman's lawyer in the blackbuck poaching case, had received a death threat in a letter allegedly sent at the behest of the Bishnoi gang.

Last month, a few days after Sidhu Moosewala's murder, Salman Khan and his father Salim Khan received an anonymous letter threatening to kill them. According to reports, Salim was handed that letter by an unidentified man when he was on his morning walk.
