“Will Kill You With AK47”, Sanjay Raut Gets Death Threat; One Arrested

New Delhi: Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut received a death threat message on his mobile phone allegedly from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The accused termed him anti-Hindu in the abusive threat message and threatened to kill the MP in Delhi like the Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala. Sanjay Raut filed a police complaint regarding it.

“Sanjay Raut received death threats stating that he will meet Sidhu Moose Wala’s fate. He got the threat from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The message said that if you met in Delhi, will kill you with AK-47. He wrote a letter to the police complaining about the matter,” the police said.

Lawrence Bishnoi is currently in a Punjab jail. The police have arrested one person and are interrogating them about it. The police are trying to trace the number from which Sanjay Raut received the threat message.

“I received a threat on my phone, and I have informed the police about it. But this government is not serious. I was threatened earlier as well, but the state’s Home Minister called it a stunt,” Raut said, adding that the state is not serious about the security of opposition leaders.

Sanjay Raut further said it doesn’t bother him, and he didn’t write any letter when his security was withdrawn.

Lawrence Bishnoi, who heads a notorious criminal gang, is said to be the mastermind behind the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala. He has also allegedly threatened the singer’s father, Balkaur Singh, and actor Salman Khan.
