Mumbai, May 23 (PTI) The Mumbai police are planning to regulate the entry of visitors at Galaxy Apartments, the residence of Bollywood actor Salman Khan in Bandra, following incidents of trespassing on the premises, officials said on Friday.
The actor, who has received threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, has already been provided Y-plus security cover.
Earlier this week, the police arrested a man and a woman for allegedly separately trespassing at Khan’s building.
The official said considering threats the actor has received and trespassing incidents, the police are thinking of regulating the entry of visitors and improving the security arrangements.
He said since it is a private building, checking every visitor can be a challenge.
According to sources, new visitors will be required to confirm their identity from the residents of the building to gain entry.
The police said on Thursday that they had apprehended one Jeetendra Singh and Isha Chabria on the charges of house trespassing in separate incidents.
In April last year, several rounds were fired outside Galaxy Apartment allegedly by members of the Bishnoi gang.
Over the years, Khan has received multiple threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
The official said the city traffic police’s WhatsApp helpline had last month received threats to Khan in the name of the Bishnoi gang, and an extortion demand was made.
Cases were registered at Worli Police Station in connection with those threats, and action was taken against the accused persons, he said.
In December last year, a man was detained for entering Khan’s film shoot location and threatened his bodyguard using the name of Lawrence Bishnoi, the official said.
In NCP leader Baba Siddique’s murder case, the police, in their chargesheet, had said Siddique was killed on the orders of Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother Anmol because of his proximity to the actor.
In 2022, the actor and his father and screenwriter Salim Khan received a death threat letter, following which his security was beefed up.
The Mumbai police had also questioned gangster Lawrence Bishnoi in connection with the threat. PTI PS DC ARU
