In a new interview with ABP News, Salim Khan revealed that he questioned Salman after the blackbuck hunting incident came to light.

Defending his son, Salim Khan went on to say, “Aur woh mujhse jhooth nahi bolega. Usko nahi hai yeh sab shauk jaanwaron ko marne ka. Jaanwaron se mohabbat karta hai vo.” Salim Khan added that Salman Khan does not even “kill a cockroach,” and is known for his kind nature in Bollywood.
Salim Khan further added, “Maafi maangna, ye accept karna hai ki maine maara hai. Salman ne kabhi kisi janwar ko nahi maara. Humne kabhi kisi cockroach ko bhi nahi maara. Hum inn cheezo mein believe hee nahi karte. Salman kisse jaake maafi maangey? Aapne kitne logo se maafi mangi hai, kitne jaanwaro ki aapne jaan bachai hai?”
In conclusion, Salim Khan added, “Koi gunaah kiya hai? Aapne dekha hai? Aapko malum hai, jaanch padtaal ki hai? Humne toh kabhi bandook bhi use nahi ki.”
The threats against Salman Khan intensified after the murder of politician and close friend Baba Siddique’s murder. In the middle of all this, Salman Khan has chosen to continue to shoot for his upcoming projects with heightened security in place. He has resumed shooting for Sikander with his Y+ security detail, and he also shot for Bigg Boss 18 with over 60 security guards around him. Every person entering his sets will now have to furnish their Aadhaar cards, reports said.
