Mumbai/UNI: Former Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officer Sameer Wankhede allegedly received threats to his life on social media.

Wankhede lodged a complaint with the Goregaon police station and an investigation is underway.

Wankhede's statement was recorded Thursday in which he alleged that soon after he got a clean chit in the fake caste certificate complaint case lodged by former minister Nawab Malik, he received the threats.

According to the police complaint, a Twitter handle by the name 'Aman' messaged Sameer Wankhede on August 14.

The message saud: "Tumko pata hai tumne kya kiya hai, iska hisaab tumko dena padega (You know what you have done, you will have to pay for it)."

Another message said, "Tumko khatam kar denge (You will be finished)."

The account had zero followers and is suspected to have been created for the purpose of issuing threats to Wankhede, police sources said.
