Salman Khan House Firing: Shooter Says Was Inspired By Lawrence Bishnoi ''Principles''

The accused, Vickykumar Gupta, stated that Lawrence Bishnoi has been wrongly named in the case and that he had no role to play in the shooting as alleged by the Mumbai police.

One of the shooters who fired outside Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's Mumbai home in April has claimed to be inspired by "principles" followed by jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and on Monday sought bail in the case, saying his financial "debt" drove him to commit the alleged crime.

The accused, Vickykumar Gupta, stated that Lawrence Bishnoi has been wrongly named in the case and that he had no role to play in the shooting as alleged by the Mumbai police.

He said the shooting's objective was to only scare Mr Khan (58) for his alleged act of killing two blackbucks 26 years ago.
