A few days ago, a Punjabi singer named Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead by unidentified assailants when he was travelling in his personal vehicle. The state government had provided him with a bulletproof car and two guards but he was not using either of them. Since then, a gangster from Canada has claimed responsibility for the killing.

The news is that someone has threatened to kill Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and his father Salim Khan (veteran screen-writer) in a similar manner in a threat letter recovered by the Mumbai police in Bandra. The police have filed an FIR on the basis of the threat letter.

Reportedly, Salim's guard spotted the threat letter on a chair when the veteran and he went out for a walk.

The news sounds ominous if you consider that the law & order situation can easily deteriorate if the concerned person is not careful enough. In the past, empty bomb threats have been thrown at celebs but the present one acquires prominence in the light of the murder of the Punjabi singer.
