Bishnoi Gang’s plan to kill Salman Khan have been revealed.
Navi Mumbai Police have disclosed disturbing information in a new charge sheet against five individuals accused of plotting to assassinate Bollywood star Salman Khan.
These suspects, allegedly linked to the infamous Lawrence Bishnoi gang, face serious charges of conspiracy to commit murder among other offenses.
Bishnoi Gang’s plan to kill Salman Khan:
On April 14, two motorbike-riding assailants fired multiple shots outside Salman Khan’s residence in Bandra, Mumbai.
This brazen attack led to the swift arrest of several suspects.

According to the charge sheet, the Bishnoi gang had placed a ₹25 lakh contract on Khan’s life. The intricate plot spanned several months, from August 2023 to April 2024.
Weapons Procurement:
The gang allegedly planned to source advanced weaponry from Pakistan, including AK-47s, AK-92s, M16 rifles, and Turkish-made Zigana pistols—the same type used in the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala on May 29, 2022.
Extensive Surveillance:
A comprehensive surveillance network, involving around 60 to 70 individuals, was set up to monitor Khan’s movements.
Surveillance operations covered his Mumbai residence, Panvel farmhouse, and Goregaon Film City, where he frequently shot films.
Recruitment of Minors:
Shockingly, the gang recruited boys under 18 years old to carry out the assassination.
These minors were reportedly waiting for orders from Goldie Brar and Anmol Bishnoi, prominent gang members believed to be based in North America.
