The Story in Brief
A 41-year-old Mumbai police constable deployed outside actor Salman Khan's residence collapsed and died of a heart attack while on duty, officials said. Constable Ganesh suddenly fell ill and was rushed to a hospital, where doctors declared him brought dead. The incident occurred amid heightened security for Khan, who faces threats from jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi over the 1990s blackbuck hunting case. In 2024, two men fired shots outside Khan's Bandra home on Bishnoi's instructions.

The tendency is to frame everything around the actor's threat perception or his fatalistic comments. But a policeman's life was lost while performing a routine assignment. Before the debate shifts to whether security details are overstretched or under-equipped, let the official death audit and post-mortem reports pin down exactly why a heart attack struck a man in his prime on the job.
