In the same interview, Salim Khan also talked about the Blackbuck poaching case and the constant threat he has been receiving from the gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Defending his son, Salim claimed that Salman didn’t kill the Blackbuck as he wasn’t even present during the poaching incident in 1998.

Salman Khan has been receiving death threats from Lawrence Bishnoi and the gang ever since his name emerged in the blackbuck poaching case. For the unversed, blackbuck is considered holy and auspicious for the Bishnoi community.

Salman Khan and Lawrence Bishnoi's feud dates back to 1998 when the actor's blackbuck poaching case took place.

Salim Khan expressed that apologizing would imply admitting to a crime that Salman Khan did not commit. He reaffirmed and defend his son's innocence.

When the interviewer asked if Baba Siddique was killed because he tried to protect Salman from Lawrence Bishnoi, Salim Khan reacted.

Following the daylight murder of NCP leader Baba Siddiqui, security for Salman Khan has been tightened due to perceived links between Siddiqui’s death and the ongoing rivalry with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.

Sukha alias Sukhbir Balbir Singh, the accused, was arrested from Panipat in Haryana by a Navi Mumbai police team two days ago. He would also be interrogated in connection with the murder of NCP leader and former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique, officials had said.

Somy Ali, who recently asked Lawrence Bishnoi to join her on a Zoom call as she wants to talk to him, had earlier apologised to Bishnoi community on behalf of her ex-boyfriend Salman Khan and his involvement in the blackbuck case.
