Salim, in a conversation with Mid-Day, said that the police is doing its job well. He said, “There is added security for Salman, who has, in any case, always had a good team of security personnel deployed for him. It (threat) is not much of a concern (for the family). We are only worried about his safety, and that is being taken care of.”
