However, Zeeshan said that he considers all the renowned names of the industry as his dad’s friends. “I don’t consider my dad’s friends as celebrities because people who come home, who are friends of your father and are friends with the family, they are like members of the family,” he told the media organisation.

After his brutal murder, a Facebook post went viral from a person claiming to be a part of Bishnoi gang. The Facebook post claimed that Siddique’s murder was due to his connections with Salman as well as underworld gangsters like Anuj Thapan and Dawood Ibrahim.

A facebook account by the name of Shubuu Lonkar Maharashtra  posted: “Om, Jai Shri Ram, Jai Bharat I understand the value of life, consider wealth and the body as dust. I did only what was right, honoured the duty of friendship. Salman Khan, we did not want this war but you made our brother lose his life. Today those praising Baba Siddique or was with Dawood under the MCOCA Act. The reason for his death was his linking of Dawood and Anuj Thapan to Bollywood, politics, and property dealings.”

It continued, “We have no enmity with anyone. However, anyone who helps Salman Khan or the Dawood gang should be prepared. If anyone gets any of our brothers killed, we will definitely respond. We never strike first. Jai Shri Ram, Jai Bharat, salute to the martyrs.”

The police are verifying the message’s authenticity. Meanwhile, Salman’s security has been increased.
