The motive behind my father’s assassination, as outlined in the charge sheet filed by the Mumbai Crime Branch, is nothing but an eyewash and a cover-up. I strongly suspect the builder lobby is behind my father’s murder, and I have revealed everything to the Mumbai Crime Branch, including the names of the builders I suspect. But no investigation has been conducted,” said Zeeshan Siddique, son of political leader Baba Siddique who was assassinated on October 12, 2024.
As per the charge sheet, the Crime Branch has identified three motives behind Siddique’s assassination: His close association with Salman Khan; the Bishnoi gang’s aim to establish supremacy in Mumbai to extort from Bollywood and businessmen; and the custodial death of Anuj Thapan, an accused in the Salman Khan firing case, which the Bishnoi gang alleges was a murder carried out on Salman Khan’s instructions.
