The Indian police have arrested two members of a criminal gang involved in a shooting incident targeting the home of Bollywood star Salman Khan.

The attack, linked to the Bishnoi gang, was a result of Khan’s past conflict with the group over the killing of two antelopes.

The gang, known for worshipping the antelope as sacred, has held a grudge against Khan since the 1998 incident in Rajasthan.

This recent attack, where five shots were fired at Khan’s Mumbai apartment, is just one in a series of threats the actor has faced.

Khan, a popular figure in Bollywood, continues to be a target of criminal activities related to this long-standing feud with the Bishnoi gang.
