Mumbai police authorities reported that Zeeshan Siddique, a leader of the Nationalist Congress Party and son of the late Baba Siddique, has been threatened with death through an email correspondence. The email ominously indicated that he would meet the same fate as his father, who was murdered, while also demanding a substantial ransom of Rs 10 crores from him.
Siddique expressed his concerns, stating that the message was allegedly sent by the D company and emphasized the distress it has caused his family. He confirmed that the police have been informed and are already working on gathering pertinent details and recording statements regarding the threat. Meanwhile, the investigation into Baba Siddique's murder, which took place on October 12, 2024, is still active; the crime was claimed by the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
Recent developments in this ongoing investigation revealed that the primary suspect, Akashdeep Gill, was apprehended in Punjab and utilized a labourer's mobile hotspot for communicating with other conspirators involved in Baba Siddique’s murder. Reports indicate that Gill played a key role as the logistics coordinator in the assassination plot designed by the infamous Anmol Bishnoi.

These threats reflect poorly on law enforcement. They can’t keep citizens safe in Mumbai.

Why should Zeeshan or any other politician be a target? They should be focusing on public safety instead.

Zeeshan’s experience shows how deep-rooted these issues are. Hopefully, this stirs the authorities to act.
