Following this, Chitrakoot police arrested a 31-year-old man who had sent him that email claiming to be from the Lawrence Bishnoi group. He was arrested from Uttar Pradesh's Bijnor area. The investigation in the case has already begun. 

Chitrakoot SHO Ram Kishan Vishnoi told TOI, "Without wasting time we sent a team to Bijnor and arrested the accused identified as Kulveer Singh Chauhan alias Tony (31). He is a drug addict and in the threat mail he had not even sent any bank account details to send the money. He was produced in a court from where we have taken him in one-day police custody."

"Salim Khan follows a morning routine where he goes for a walk on the promenade accompanied by his security personnel. There's a location where he typically takes a break. A chit had been left behind on a bench," a police officer told TOI.  

"Salim Khan, Salman Khan bahut jald aapka moosewala hoga KGBLB", (soon will make you like Moose Wala)," the letter read as per the report. 

It is suspected that the threat letter to Salman Khan carried the initials of the gangsters -  GB and LB. While GB refers to Goldy Brar, who had reportedly claimed responsibility for Sidhu Moose Wala's murder and LB refers to Lawrence Bishnoi, who had earlier as well threatened to kill Salman Khan and with whom Goldy Brar is associated.
