Bollywoood superstar Salman Khan’s bodyguard, Sher Khan alias Shera, has been booked by the D N Nagar Police in Mumbai in connection with an assault case.


According to the D N Nagar police, the fight between Shera and the victim, a waiter in popular hotel, took place over an argument, after which Shera attacked the victim. He received serious injuries on his neck and fractured his shoulder.


According to the police, the incident took place around 1.50 am on Tuesday when the complainant, Athar Amar Qureshi, was walking on the road near Indian Oil Nagar, Andheri. Qureshi, earlier, had a minor dispute with Shera in the restaurant after which Shera and his two friends (also bodyguards) stopped Qureshi and hit him with a pistol on his right shoulder.
