I have informed the Ministry of Home Affairs, Rajasthan Police, and CRPF officials. Salman Khan is fighting on two fronts, on one side, there is a hearing today in the Delhi High Court against him for the ‘Kala Hiran’ case, on the other side, he has already orchestrated thousands of threats through his toolkit”.
