On Thursday, Amit Jani took to his X, formerly Twitter, and penned a long note in which he shared details of the threat issued to him by a “Pakistani terrorist,” as the latter sided with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. He wrote, “I am receiving calls and messages late at night from Shahzad Bhatti, the declared Pakistani terrorist, threatening to kill me in a drone and grenade attack while taking Salman Khan's side. I have informed the Ministry of Home Affairs, Rajasthan Police, and CRPF officials. Salman Khan is fighting on two fronts. On one side, there is a hearing today in the Delhi High Court against him for the ‘Kala Hiran’ case; on the other side, he has already orchestrated thousands of threats through his toolkit.”
