Viral post, Salman Khan with Baba Siddiqui (X, ANI)

Baba Siddique murder Bishnoi gang: In the aftermath of NCP leader Baba Siddique’s murder, a chilling post on Facebook by a person named Shubhoo Lonkar has sparked concerns, as it warns anyone supporting Bollywood star Salman Khan and underworld figure Dawood Ibrahim. This alarming post is now under investigation by the Mumbai Crime Branch for its potential connection to the assassination.

How was Baba Siddique assassinated?

On the night of October 12, 2024, Baba Siddique was gunned down in Bandra, Mumbai. The attack took place as he was returning home after visiting the office of his son, Congress MLA Zeeshan Siddique. Three gunmen opened fire, fatally wounding the NCP leader.

Siddique, known for his strong political and Bollywood connections, especially with actor Salman Khan, has left investigators probing multiple leads, including the possible involvement of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.

'Body, money is dust for me'

Shortly after the murder, a man named Shubhoo Lonkar posted a threatening message on Facebook, warning anyone supporting Salman Khan or Dawood Ibrahim to “settle their accounts.” This post has become a focal point of the ongoing investigation, as it hints at deep-rooted tensions involving Bollywood, the underworld, and politics.

In the post, Lonkar claimed that Salman Khan had caused harm to their "brother" and linked Baba Siddique’s murder to his past under the MCOCA (Maharashtra Control of Organized Crime Act), particularly mentioning Dawood Ibrahim and property disputes. He issued a direct threat, stating that those who harm their own would face severe consequences. The hashtags used, which mentioned Lawrence Bishnoi, Anmol Bishnoi, and Ankit Bhadu Sherewala, have further raised suspicions about the involvement of the Bishnoi gang.

The post written in Hindi reads, "Om Jai Shree Ram Jai Bharat I understand the essence of life, I consider body and money as dust. Only that was the good deed which I did, that was the duty of friendship which I fulfilled. Salman Khan, we did not want this war but you caused harm to our brother… today the words of Baba Siddique's decency are closed or at one time he was under MCOCA act with Dawood… the reason for his death was to connect Anuj Thapan and Dawood with Bollywood, politics, property dealing…. We do not have any enmity with anyone, but whoever helps Salman Khan and Dawood gang, keep his accounts in order…. if anyone gets any of our brothers killed, then we will definitely respond, we have never attacked first…. Jai Shree Ram Jai Bharat Salute to the martyrs #Lawrence Bishnoi Group #AnmolBishnoi #AnkitBhaduSherewala"

Investigations focus on Lawrence Bishnoi gang

The Mumbai Crime Branch is now investigating three primary leads, with one of the strongest pointing towards the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. This notorious group had previously threatened Salman Khan, making their connection to the murder even more alarming. Sources suggest that the attackers had been surveying the area for nearly a month before striking. On the night of the murder, the assailants arrived in an auto-rickshaw and opened fire as soon as Baba Siddique reached the scene.

Investigators are examining whether the crime was motivated by personal enmity, political rivalry, or a complex web of criminal dealings. The possibility of involvement by the Bishnoi gang, known for its history of violent threats, has become a central focus.

Growing concerns over Bollywood-Underworld links

Baba Siddique’s murder has raised questions about ongoing tensions within the Bollywood industry, underworld connections, and political affiliations. While the investigation continues, the authorities are leaving no stone unturned in uncovering the truth behind the attack.
