Extortionist Demanded Rs 50 Lakh From Shah Rukh Khan

The threat call was made on a landline number and was received by a Mumbai cop on November 5. The man identified himself as "Hindustani" and asked for Rs 50 lakh. The caller said: "Ask Shah Rukh Khan to pay up Rs 50 lakh. If he doesn't, he will die... My name is not important, but if you want to write, not down the name 'Hindustani'."

One Arrested In SRK Death Threat Case

Faizan, under whose name, the number was registered, has been arrested in Raipur. However, the police haven't released any further information. The suspect is being interrogated by the Bandra Police team in Raipur.

It is still unclear whether "Faizan" was "Hindustani" or if someone had used his details to procure the number used to threaten Shah Rukh Khan.

If he does not do this, we will kill him. Our gang is still active."
