In a shocking turn of events, Indian cricketer Rinku Singh has reportedly received threats from the notorious underworld gang linked to Dawood Ibrahim. Reports from the Mumbai Police’s Crime Branch reveal that Rinku’s promotional team received several ransom demands, totalling Rs 5 crore, sent between February and April this year.
Rinku Singh Faces Serious Threats
Two suspects, Mohammed Dilshad and Mohammed Naveed, have been arrested after being apprehended in the West Indies and handed over to Indian authorities. Did they have a larger plan? During questioning, one suspect allegedly admitted calling Rinku Singh directly to demand ransom. These men are also accused of attempting to extort Rs 10 crore from Zeeshan Siddiqui, son of the late MLA Baba Siddiqui.
On the cricketing front, Rinku recently scored the winning runs for India in the Asia Cup 2025 final against Pakistan. With an impressive strike rate in T20Is and a growing reputation in Indian cricket, is Rinku’s rising stardom putting him in the crosshairs of criminals? The investigation continues as fans anxiously await updates.
