Salman Khan News: The accused who threatened to kill Bollywood actor Salman Khan was arrested in Haveri city of Karnataka on Wednesday (November 6). According to the police, the accused has been identified as Bhikha Ram alias Vikram, son of Jalaram Bishnoi, resident of Rajasthan. 32-year-old Bhikha Ram, resident of Jalore district, had gone to Haveri city for labor only one and a half months ago. He lives here in a room with the laborers and works as a grill. Before this he used to work somewhere else.
While threatening Salman, the accused had described himself as Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother. However, the investigation so far has not revealed any close brotherly relationship with Lawrence.
