Salman Khan's security has been a major concern for his fans ever since the death of NCP leader Baba Siddique. After gangster Lawrence Bishnoi took responsibility of the late politician's murder, questions about the security of Salman and his family have been raised in the media. Recently, Baba Siddique's son Zeeshan Siddique, in an interview with BBC Hindi stated that Salman has always been supportive of him. He also revealed that the actor has been unable to sleep properly since his father died. 

Zeeshan Siddique says Salman has always been supportive

Zeeshan, when asked how much support he is getting from celebrities who were invited at his late father's parties, stated that, “Main humesha se pitaji ke jo dost rahe hain unko celebrities to nahi maanta hoon. Kyuki agar aapke ghar pe koi agar humesha aata hai, aapke pitaji ke parivarik dost hote hain to woh ghar ke sadasya hi jaise hote hain. To jitta ghar ke sadasya ki ahmiyat hoti hai waise Bhai ki ahmiyat hai aur baaki jo pitaji ke dost hain. (I have never considered my father's friends to be celebrities. Because if someone always visits your home, they are your father's close friends and are considered family members. So, Salman Khan and other celebrities are as important as any other family member).”

He further said, “Salman Bhai bhi bohot upset hue is cheez ko le kar. Pitaji aur Salman Bhai to humesha sage bhai jitne hi close the. Pitaji ke jaane ke baad bhi Bhai ne bohot support diya hai, humesha check karte hain mere pe. Unko raat ko neend nahi aati hai, ye sab baat karte hain. (Salman was very upset by all these things. Father and Salman were as close as real brothers. He has supported me a lot ever since my father's death; he always makes sure to check on me. He can't sleep properly at night; he speaks to me about all these things).”
