"Mevani has been receiving death threats for the last two-three days. In one of the calls he received, the caller had mentioned my name, too. He had mentioned that if we don't stop giving speeches we would be killed. Mevani informed me and I approached the police. A case has been registered and they said that they will do a threat assessment and take a call on providing police protection," Khalid said.
