Threat message asks Yogi Adityanath to resign, adds ’Baba Siddique’ warning

Mumbai, Nov 3, 2024: Mumbai Traffic Police have received a death threat against Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, threatening the BJP leader with murder "like Baba Siddique" unless he stepped down as Chief Minister within 10 days. This comes weeks after Baba Siddique, former minister and NCP (Ajit Pawar) leader, was shot dead in Bandra. The threat to the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister also comes amid a string of death threats to actor Salman Khan.


Threat message to Yogi Adityanath


A WhatsApp helpline number of the Mumbai Traffic Police control room received a message from an unknown number last evening. The message said that if Yogi Adiyanath did not resign in 10 days, he would be "killed like Baba Siddique". Mumbai Police is investigating the matter and trying to track down the sender of the message.

The latest threat message comes amid a wave of death threats received by cops in Mumbai over the past several weeks. Most of these targeted Salman Khan and threatened that the actor would be killed unless he paid a ransom. Against the backdrop of the firing outside the actor’s residence earlier this year, the cops tracked down senders of these messages and took them into custody. They include a vegetable seller from Jamshedpur and a tattoo artist from Noida. Mumbai Police have taken them into transit remand and are questioning them.

One of these threat messages named Zeeshan Siddique, Bandra MLA and son of Baba Siddique. The former minister was shot dead near his son’s office on October 12. Jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang has claimed responsibility for the murder.

The murdered politician was known to be close to Salman Khan, who has in the past received death threats from the Bishnoi gang, apparently due to his involvement in the blackbuck hunting case in Rajasthan during the shooting of Hum Saath Saath Hain. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang was also found to be behind the firing outside Salman Khan’s home in April. The actor’s security has been beefed up after the firing outside and death threats.
