A police official told The Indian Express that Siddique’s sister approached the Bandra police after hearing a viral online clip. “She said that she heard the clip on social media. Based on her complaint, we have registered an NC [non-cognisable offence]. We are currently investigating if the viral clip is authentic,” the police official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
In the viral audio clip, a man purportedly introduces himself as gangster Zeeshan Akhtar and tells Siddique he should tighten his security. “As you know, I have killed your father, and now it’s your turn. Beef up your security as I have issued your death warrant. I have found your involvement in Sushant Singh Rajput’s case,” the clip purportedly states.
