"Ye sirf trailer tha:" Lawrence Bishnoi's brother claims firing incident outside Salman Khan's home

Gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's brother Anmol Bishnoi has allegedly taken responsibility for the firing outside Bollywood actor Salman Khan's residence in Bandra on Sunday.

A purported social media post by Anmol - who is also accused in the murder of Punjabi singer-turned-politician Sidhu Moosewala - called the firing only a "trailer" while issuing a warning to the actor.

"We want peace. If the only decision against oppression is war, then so be it. Salman Khan, we have only shown you a trailer so that you understand the magnitude of our strength and do not test it. This is the first and last warning. After this, shots will not be fired outside the house only. And we have dogs named after Dawood Ibrahim and Chota Shakeel, whom you consider to be Gods. Now, I don't have the habit of talking much," the post read.

Earlier in the day, two unidentified persons opened fire outside the actor's residence at 5 a.m. and ran away on their motorcycles.

According to reports, the two unknown persons sporting helmets came speeding on a motorcycle and fired at least four shots in the direction of Galaxy Apartment in the Bandra area of Mumbai Suburban.

It was not immediately known if Salman Khan was at home or not on a weekend holiday.

A Bandra Police team and Mumbai crime branch immediately rushed to the Khan house and started investigations, while the roads leading to the actor's residence were cordoned off and security was tightened in the vicinity.

A team of forensic experts from Kalina Police Lab reached the spot and recovered two bullets while police are scanning the CCTV footage in the area to trace out the shooters and check their motives and targets, sources in police said.

In the past couple of years, he and his father, Salim Khan, have been issued death threats in different ways, including dropping a letter to the family.
