Famous Bollywood actor Salman Khan has been receiving death threats for a long time. The actor once again received a very horrifying threatening letter. Now the Gujarat Police has identified the person who gave a new death threat to Bollywood actor Salman Khan. A 26-year-old suspect from a village in Waghodiya area of Vadodara district allegedly sent a threatening message to break into Khan's house in Mumbai and plant a bomb in his car.
What was the motive behind the threat?
There was no gang war or revenge motive behind this death threat. Police say that the motive behind sending the threat was allegedly to become famous on Instagram. According to the Times of India, the person who sent the threat has been identified as 25-year-old Vadodara resident Mayank Pandya. According to officials, his only purpose was to grab headlines on social media and increase his followers on Instagram.
This drama started when the accused sent this threat via WhatsApp to the Mumbai Traffic Police helpline. The message warned of bombing the Sikandar actor's car and hinted at an attack on the actor's Bandra residence. Within hours, the Mumbai Police traced the sender and Pandya was taken into custody from his hometown.
Social media stunt goes too far.
During police interrogation, Mayank confessed that he had no real plan to harm Salman Khan. His motive was to grab attention by imitating the threatening style of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. He thought this dangerous stunt would make him go viral on Instagram. However, the plan failed miserably and he landed in police custody instead of becoming popular online.
The man is not in a good mental state.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone 3) Dattatraya Kamble confirmed that the threat to Salman Khan was sent from Pandya's mobile. The police later confirmed that Mayank has been undergoing treatment for mental health issues since 2014. In 2014, his grandfather died due to electric shock which he saw before his eyes and this left a trauma in his brain. The family claims that he is undergoing treatment.
