Adnan Sami, a British-Pakistani singer and composer is facing the consequences of the 26/11 attacks on Mumbai. He has been getting death threats from unknown callers on Wednesday.
“The calls started coming instantaneously after that horrific Wednesday. The command was plain, ‘Leave Mumbai immediately or be killed’,” tells a harrowed Adnan.

Adnan didn’t know who was making these calls. He had already received a lot of aggravation from fellow Indian musicians who hate the coming of Pakistani singers in India. “When the calls repeated, Adnan then decided that this time, the threat was more serious than before. For the first time, he became seriously worried for himself and his wife Sabah,” tells to close sources.
Actually Adnan contacted Sonia Gandhi for help but with elections overhead, she probably didn’t want any controversies impeding Congress’ chances. So she did not provide him any protection. Poor Adnan had to get in touch with a private agency for security.
Close source confirms, “He now moves around with four bodyguards and four armed men provided by an agency named 911. This security posse accompanies him ubiquitously. They stay in his house and go to concerts and other social occasions with him. Adnan is seriously scared for his life. He has told very close friends the name of the organisation that should be held responsible if something untoward were to happen to him.”
Well, Pakistani artistes in Bollywood must be careful. |
