Bullet-proof glass, CCTV, modern security system installed at Salman Khan’s house

Security at Bollywood actor Salman Khan's residence in Bandra area here has been enhanced with bulletproof glass protecting his balcony and a high-tech CCTV camera system keeping a watch on the road outside, a police official said on Tuesday.

The bulletproof glass panel will ensure the actor's safety when he comes into the balcony of his flat at Galaxy Apartments to greet his fans, said the official.

The security upgrade, being carried out by a private contractor hired by Khan, comes months after two men on a motorbike, allegedly belonging to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, opened fire outside the building in April 2024.

A high-tech CCTV camera has been installed in front of the building to detect any suspicious movement and also razor wire fencing is being put around it, the police official said. The actor, who enjoys 24-hour police protection, had received threats from the Bishnoi gang in the past.

In June 2024, the Navi Mumbai Police had claimed to have discovered a plot to kill the actor when he travelled to his farmhouse at Panvel near Mumbai.
