Lawrence Bishnoi Gang Claims Responsibility for Tiger Shroff Shooting, Issues Threats
Actor Tiger Shroff was targeted in a shooting incident in Mumbai's Juhu area, with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang claiming responsibility. A social media post and audio messages from gang members Anil Pandit and Harman Sandhu linked the attack to Shroff's association with Salman Khan, issuing threats to others in the film industry who work with Khan. The police have launched an investigation and deployed teams to trace the perpetrators. The Bishnoi gang's hostility towards Salman Khan stems from a decades-old dispute over the 1998 blackbuck poaching case, with the gang extending threats to Khan's associates.
