Sanjay Raut's ex-friend Swapna Patkar gets threat call from Pakistani number
Mumbai: Swapna Patkar, a former friend of politician Sanjay Raut, leader of the Shiv Sena faction led by Uddhav Thackeray, on Sunday complained to the Vakola police about a call she received from a Pakistani number threatening to drown her in acid.
Significantly, a few days ago, a high-profile politician had also called and threatened to “drown” her “in acid”.
In a separate development, Patkar, has urged Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who is in charge of the home portfolio, to ensure that the Vakola police act on the FIR she had filed against Raut in July last year.
She had submitted an audio clip in which a man - suspected to be Raut - can be heard abusing and intimidating her.
