Actor Salman Khan’s two sea-facing cottages at Chimbai in Mumbai’s western suburb Bandra have put him on a confrontation path with local fishermen who have accused his family and bodyguards of intimidation and harassment.

Salman’s family has denied the allegations, but the fishermen have repeatedly approached the Bandra police station, complaining that they are being pressured not to berth their boats and keep their nets near the actor’s cottages.

On Tuesday, fishermen from Chimbai met ACP (western region) Vishwas Nangre Patil, who assured them of security and a complete inquiry within 15 days.
