The former India batter filed a formal request to SHO Rajinder Nagar and the DCP Central Delhi to register the First Information Report (FIR). Furthermore, he requested the law and enforcement agencies and authorities to come up with some hard-and-fast and necessary actions to assure the safety for his family.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police are likely to investigate the entire matter and execute all the required steps to provide a safety and security to Gambhir and his family.
It is reported to have happened on April 22, when Gambhir received two emails with a death threat. The first email was sent in the afternoon, followed by the second one in the evening. ‘IKillU’ message was reportedly written in both emails.
However, it is not for the first time that the Indian head coach and former BJP MP; he had also received a similar kind of threats four years ago in 2021. Those threats were also sent to him via email.
