Firing outside Bollywood star Salman Khan's home

Two motorbike-borne unidentified people opened fire outside Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's house in Mumbai early Sunday morning leading the police to step up security in the area.

They fired four rounds around 5 am outside the Galaxy Apartments in Mumbai's Bandra area, where the actor resides, and fled. The police have launched a search for the bikers.


Security outside Khan's residence was stepped up and the police were collecting footage of the CCTV cameras installed near his house to identify the bikers, a senior police official said.

A team of forensic experts has reached the spot to collect evidence, the official added.

There was no official word from the police or Khan's family on whether the actor was present in the house at the time of the incident.

In March last year, an e-mail threatening Khan was received at his office following which the Mumbai Police registered an FIR against gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi and Goldy Brar and another person under various sections of the Indian Penal Code.

In June 2022, an unidentified person threatened Khan via a handwritten note, the police said. (PTI)

'The last moments of his energy': How Indian pilot Smit Machchhar saved flight FZ1073

  • Captain Smit Machchhar, stabbed by his co-pilot, opened the cockpit door so passengers and crew could intervene.
  • Modi, Netanyahu, Murmu and Trump have all hailed him as a hero.
  • He is in stable condition in hospital in Tabuk, according to the Indian Embassy.
  • The UAE and Saudi Arabia are investigating, and flydubai says the motive is unknown.

SMIT MACHCHHAR was lying on the cockpit floor, covered in blood, when he summoned what an Israeli official called "the last moments of his energy" to release the cockpit door.

That act, aboard a flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv on Wednesday, allowed passengers and crew to overpower his co-pilot. Israeli officials say the co-pilot had stabbed Machchhar and tried to crash the plane, which was carrying 174 passengers.
