After threatening Rohit Shetty, Ranveer Singh, ‘Bishnoi group’ now targets Thane developer in ₹10 cr extortion attempt

The Bishnoi group, notorious for its criminal activities, has escalated its threats following previous extortion attempts targeting Bollywood figures like Rohit Shetty and Ranveer Singh. In a recent incident, a Thane-based developer received a series of alarming WhatsApp calls demanding an extortion payment of ₹10 crore. The caller warned the businessman to comply with the financial demand or face dire consequences, including threats to his life. This incident underscores the growing concern over organized crime and extortion in Mumbai, particularly in the real estate sector, which has become increasingly vulnerable to such criminal enterprises. Authorities are being urged to take stringent measures to combat this alarming trend and ensure safety for individuals in high-profile positions and the business community. As investigations continue, the impact of these threats on the developer's operations and the broader implications for the industry remain to be seen.
