Case Investigation on Shah Rukh Khan Death Threat Reveals Alleged Accused Targeted Aryan Khan, Kept Trailing Their Movements
Alarming news was sent ripples across the Indian entertainment industry: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan had received a death threat demanding ₹50 lakh. Shocked by the case traced to Chhattisgarh in a phone call, further sinister turns were made in the investigations as the accused, lawyer Faizan Khan, did not just target Shah Rukh Khan but his elder son, Aryan Khan.
Threat Details November 7, 2024:
The Bandra Police Station received a call demanding a big ransom from Shah Rukh Khan. The caller threatened dire consequences if the amount was not paid. Faizan Khan, the alleged perpetrator, was held in Raipur as the case was promptly investigated.
It was later established that the accused had gathered information with meticulous detail about Shah Rukh Khan’s security measures and the daily routine of Aryan Khan. According to reports, the suspect has conducted extensive research through online channels in regards to the protection of the Jawan actor and Aryan, which indicates that his safety is being compromised.
Evidence from the Accused’s Device
The Mumbai police discovered some key evidence in the investigation process. A second mobile phone recovered from the arrested persons had a significant browsing history of searching into Shah Rukh Khan’s security team and the whereabouts of Aryan.
Authorities further revealed that Faizan Khan had made use of a particular application that helped him spoof the Bandra Police Station’s landline number, from which the threatening call was made. The mobile phone used for the call is said to have been purchased on October 30, mere days before the incident.
Interestingly, Faizan Khan reported the phone as stolen on November 2 but did not deactivate the SIM card linked to it. Police noted inconsistencies in his claims. Typically, in cases of genuine theft, the stolen device’s SIM is replaced or blocked by the owner—steps that were not taken here. Additionally, the accused made no effort to locate his phone, adding to the suspicion of premeditation.
Premeditation and Arrest
Authorities believe that the crime was carefully planned, with deliberate attempts to cover the accused’s tracks. The device in question, which played a central role in making the call, was allegedly hidden by Faizan Khan to mislead investigators.
After tracing the threatening call to Faizan Khan’s number, Mumbai police arrested him in Raipur and got transit remand to examine him further. The accused pleaded in the court that his cell phone had been snatched, and he is being falsely implicated in the case. However, there is solid evidence garnered by the police that contradicts the accused persons’ claims.
Public and Industry Reaction
The news has raised widespread fear among fans and members of the film fraternity. Threats against famous celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan have exemplified that safety is at stake in this industry. The fact that it is claimed that Aryan Khan was also a target has taken fear up to the next level.
Fans and well-wishers expressed support for the Khan family and called for law enforcement to continue ensuring their safety while nabbing the culprit behind the threat.
The Upcoming Projects of Shah Rukh Khan
Amid these terrifying tidings, Shah Rukh Khan is busy making the next prominent commitments in his career. An action thriller King, directed by Sujoy Ghosh would be Shah Rukh Khan’s next film on screen. It will be another special venture with his daughter Suhana Khan as she shares space with her dad for the very first time. Abhishek Bachchan and Abhay Verma from Munjya will also feature in the film.
This is especially more important because it shows the rise of Suhana Khan as an actress and gives Shah Rukh Khan a different ball game to play with his daughter in this movie.
The Shah Rukh Khan death threat case reminds one of the how difficult it gets for public figures and their families. While his intentions remain out of investigation, the pre-meditation acts involved showcase reasons why there must be more stringent measures put in place to ensure celebs’ safety.
The incident underlines the resilience of Bollywood’s beloved stars who continue to entertain and inspire in adversity. All eyes are glued now on the investigation on hand and Shah Rukh Khan’s much-anticipated return to the big screen with King.
