Mumbai, February 13: Following a series of significant revelations regarding a shooting incident at filmmaker Rohit Shetty’s residence, the Mumbai Police have uncovered crucial information related to a threat made against actor Ranveer Singh.
The Mumbai Crime Branch has stated that Harry Boxer, a key associate of the Bishnoi Gang, sent a voice note threatening Ranveer Singh and demanding a ransom of one crore rupees. The Crime Branch is actively gathering additional evidence to strengthen their investigation into the incident.
In the case involving Bollywood star Ranveer Singh, the Crime Branch has confirmed that the voice in the WhatsApp voice note belongs to Harry Boxer. However, they are still in the process of collecting other related evidence. To verify the authenticity of the voice note, the Crime Branch has sent it for forensic analysis, with results pending. The initial shooting incident at Rohit Shetty’s home appears to be linked to the subsequent threat made against the actor.
Rather than a direct threat to Singh, the demand for money was made through a voice note sent to his manager’s phone, prompting an increase in the actor’s security. To further investigate and gather crucial leads, the Mumbai Crime Branch recorded a statement from Singh’s manager three days ago and is attempting to trace the VPN network used to send the threat, which is believed to be located outside the country.
Interpol’s assistance is being sought to accurately determine the sender’s actual location. The Crime Branch has also recorded a statement from the manager of Ayush Sharma, brother-in-law of actor Salman Khan. Authorities believe that the shooting at Rohit Shetty’s home and the threat to Ranveer Singh are interconnected, as both individuals are considered close within the industry and have collaborated on films together.
