In the current case, police said that Salim Khan, 87, was handed over an unsigned, hand-written threat letter by one unknown person on a bench where he normally rests after jogging at the Bandra Bandstand promenade, around 7.30 a.m. on Sunday.
It was addressed to him and his son Salman and facing something amiss, they immediately alerted their security to inform the police.
The threat letter ends with a couple of initials including ‘L.B.’ which the police suspect refers to ‘Lawrence Bishnoi’ though the latter is understood to have denied any connection to the incident to the Delhi Police.
