History
All about the death threat issued to Khan
The death threat was issued by Lawrence Bishnoi in June, days after the assassination of Moose Wala.
The letter was discovered by Khan's father Salim Khan's security personnel when the writer went for a walk in Mumbai.
It carried the message: "Tumhara Moose Wala kar denge (you will end up like Moose Wala)."
Bishnoi had issued a death threat to Salman in 2018, too.
Confessions
Bishnoi confessed to having attempted to murder Khan
After interrogations, Bishnoi admitted to having appointed his gang member—Sampat Nehra—to murder Khan in 2018, to "teach him a lesson" for killing a blackbuck in 1998.
Bishnoi told the police that Nehra couldn't execute the plan since he didn't have a rifle to shoot a long-distance target.
During his interrogation, Bishnoi also added that only he will decide the fate of Khan.
