ROHIT SHETTY EXTORTION CASE: INVESTIGATORS TRACE THREAT TO PAKISTAN-LINKED VPN

The investigation into the alleged ₹20 crore extortion threat targeting filmmaker Rohit Shetty has taken a new turn. According to reports, Mumbai Crime Branch officials have traced the threatening voice message to a virtual private network (VPN) linked to Pakistan.

Investigators, however, believe the message may not represent a credible extortion attempt and are also exploring the possibility that the audio was recorded in India before being routed through a Pakistan-linked VPN to conceal its origin.
The probe remains ongoing as authorities continue to examine the digital trail.
