The firing that took place outside Salman Khan’s house in April this year shook the nation. Members from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang opened fire outside the actor’s house in Bandra, Mumbai. The police have captured the culprits and have kept them in custody. Amidst this, a recent report has revealed that one of the accused claimed that he was influenced by Bishnoi and that Bishnoi had been wrongly implicated in the case.

As reported by PTI, Vicky Gupta – one of the accused in the Salman Khan house firing case – has claimed that he follows the same ‘principles’ in his life that are followed by Lawrence Bishnoi. He also claimed that Bishnoi had no role to play in the firing outside the actor’s house. Gupta filed a bail plea before a special court which has been set up under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime (MCOCA) in Mumbai. He is lodged in a Sabarmati jail.

Gupta also mentioned that he and his gang opened fire outside Khan’s house to only ‘give apprehension’ to the actor over his 1998 blackbuck poaching case. He revealed that he was not approached by Bishnoi to carry out the firing. He claimed that he lost his job in Tamil Nadu during the COVID-19 pandemic and that he originally hailed from a village in Bihar. He alleged that he was debt-ridden ‘which compelled the applicant to commit the crime.’

On the work front, Khan is currently working on Sajid Nadiadwala-AR Murugadoss’ ‘Sikandar’ which is slated to release on Eid 2025.
