How police solved the Shah Rukh Khan's death threat case?
Actor Shah Rukh Khan on November 7 received a death threat over a call demanding Rs 50 lakh. After the FIR was filed, the Mumbai Police reportedly traced the call to Chhattisgarh's Raipur. Teams from the Mumbai Police have since left for Chhattisgarh to further investigate the case.

CSP Civil Lines Ajay Kumar stated, "Today Mumbai Police came to Pandri Police Station where they informed that a crime had been registered in Bandra Police Station where Shah Rukh Khan was threatened and money was demanded. Mumbai Police gave a notice to the accused. No information has been received about his arrest yet."
