In the post, the gang member confessed that he did right in honor of his “duty of friendship.” The post further mentioned, “Salman Khan, we did not want this war but you made our brother lose his life. Today the pool of decency of Baba Siddique is closed or at one time he was under MCOCA (Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act) with Dawood. The reason for his death was his links to Dawood and Anuj Thapan in Bollywood, politics, and property dealings.”
As per an official post shared by Baba’s son, Zeeshan Siddique, the late politician’s last rites will be carried out today i.e. October 13, 2024, at 7 p.m. in Mumbai.
