As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for detail and years of experience in navigating the complexities of the entertainment industry, I find it alarming to hear about such incidents involving beloved personalities like Sunil Pal and Mushtaq Khan. The fact that their kidnapping ordeal was part of a larger plot to abduct Shakti Kapoor is truly chilling.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but share my shock over a chilling tale that unfolded in the past. Comedy legend Sunil Pal and senior Bollywood star Mushtaq Khan, two icons I admire deeply, found themselves in a harrowing ordeal – they were both kidnapped! Sunil bravely shared his traumatic experience with the authorities and reported the incident swiftly.

As per a report by Hindustan Times, police launched an investigation after Sunil Pal and Mushtaq Khan claimed they were kidnapped in Delhi while attending an event. It was discovered during the investigation that the culprits had also intended to kidnap actor Shakti Kapoor, but eventually abandoned this plan.

During his account, Khan revealed that he was given airline tickets and some money ahead of time for attending an event. Upon arriving in New Delhi, however, he was escorted to a mysterious destination. Interestingly, this same scheme was attempted against Shraddha Kapoor’s father, who was offered INR 5 lakhs for a similar event. Yet, the plan fell through due to the demand of a large upfront payment. Now, authorities are probing if this group may have been involved in the kidnapping of other actors as well.

Regarding the matter of Khan’s predicament, Abhishek Jha, Bijnor Superintendent of Police (SP), shared with PTI that Mushtaq Khan was menaced, abducted, and kept hostage at the residence of Lavi, a suspect connected to the case. Notably, members of the gang managed to obtain Khan’s bank account information and password.

However, after their inebriated stupor led them to sleep, Khan managed to break free and with the assistance of local residents, he reached out to his family and eventually made it back to Mumbai safely. It is said that the well-respected artist was seized from the Delhi-Meerut highway, where he endured a prolonged ordeal of 12 hours, during which he was subjected to violence.

On November 21st, it was reported that kidnappers took out 2.2 lakhs from Mushtaq Khan’s bank account while they were shopping in Meerut and Muzaffarnagar. Some members of the gang have been apprehended by the police, and they also recovered 1.04 lakhs from these suspects.
