The Mumbai Crime Branch is now suspecting Harry Boxer, a suspected active member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, of participation in the star Ranveer Singh threat case. According to Mumbai Police officials who spoke to CNN-News18, Singh’s manager received a voicemail on WhatsApp requesting ₹1 crore. The sender of the audio message allegedly threatened the actor and demanded money in exchange for extortion. Investigators discovered during a preliminary check that the voice in the note sounds like Harry Boxer’s.
To verify the sender’s identity, a thorough technical and forensic study is presently being conducted, according to officials.
The message may have been sent from overseas using a VPN to conceal its source, according to investigators. Police have also asked Interpol for help in identifying the voice note’s origin. Investigations are now being conducted.
The Crime Branch is still looking into the shooting outside Rohit Shetty’s house. In relation to the event, five people have been taken into custody: Aman Marote (27), Aditya Gayaki (19), Siddharth Yenpure (20), Samarth Pomaji (18), and Swapnil Sakat (23). Shubham Lonkar, a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, has been listed as a wanted person.
The shooter reportedly fired five rounds of 7.62 mm ammo from a top-notch domestically manufactured firearm. Through forensic examination, police are attempting to ascertain if the rounds were 7.62×39 mm or 7.62×51 mm. Investigators are looking into the potential involvement of additional gang members since they think the shooter was not operating alone. In addition, the Crime Branch is monitoring financial transactions, reviewing bank accounts, and documenting witness statements.
In addition, Aayush Sharma, Salman Khan’s brother-in-law, is said to have received a threatening email. He received the threatening email on February 11. The Mumbai crime branch is also looking into this matter.
