Forensic Test Links Death Threats to Baba Siddique Murder Accused in Zeeshan Siddique Case
NCP leader Zeeshan Siddique, son of the late Baba Siddique, has reported receiving two death threats in Mumbai, prompting him to file a complaint with Bandra police. A forensic analysis by the Mumbai Crime Branch confirmed that the threatening voice matches Zeeshan Akhtar, a wanted accused in Baba Siddique's murder case. The Anti-Extortion Cell has taken over the investigation, and security around Siddique's family has been increased amid concerns over the accused's access to Siddique's contact details.
