Actor Salman Khan has been receiving death threats from gangster Lawrence for a long time now. The entire case is linked to Salman's blackbuck poaching case in 1998. At that time, Salman was shooting for the film 'Hum Saath Saath Hai' in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. One day he went hunting with his co-stars.
Recently, the Lawrence gang killed NCP leader Baba Siddiqui, a close friend of Salman.
It was someone else's fault Talking about the whole matter in an old interview, Salman said that he found a scared deer which he fed biscuits and gave some water. After this he ran away from there. Salman said that he did not kill the deer, it was someone else's fault.
We stopped the car, he was very scared Talking to NDTV in 2009, Salman said that – 'One day after the pickup, we were all driving. Me, Saif, Tabu, Neelam, Amrita and Sonali were also there. Then we saw a baby deer stuck in the bushes. The whole crowd was with him. We stopped the car and he was very scared.

Saw us going together and that's where it all started Salman continued, 'We took him out of the bushes and gave him water. There were also many other deer. The deer then ate the delicious biscuit and went back to its herd. That was all that happened that day. After this we packed our things and left. I think we all found ourselves going together and that's where it all started.
I'm not wrong, I thought it was best to keep quiet In another viral interview, Salman said that he did not hunt the antelope. It's someone else's fault. Salman further said that this is a long story but there is no point in telling it. People only see that he has hunted, he is bad-tempered…he must have killed a deer.
Hey, you don't even know a cent of that truth. Yes, I agree that I may not say anything bad or good to the world but that doesn't mean I am wrong. I thought it best to just keep quiet.
Gangster Lawrence is currently lodged in Gujarat's Sabarmati Central Jail
The reason for Lawrence's enmity with Salman
- Salman is accused of hunting black deer in the forests of Rajasthan during the shooting of the film 'Hum Saath Saath Hai' in 1998. Apart from Salman, Saif Ali Khan, Sonali Bendre, Tabu and Neelam Kothari were also accused.
- Then the Bishnoi community also filed a complaint against Salman. For this, the Jodhpur court also sentenced Salman to five years in jail, although he later got bail in the case. This is why gangster Lawrence wants to kill Salman Khan.
- Delhi and Mumbai police have arrested many of Lawrence's associates for planning to shoot at Salman Khan's house. But still Lawrence is employing his gangsters. A few days ago, Salman Khan's house was fired upon in Mumbai.
