When Hindustan Times reached out to Remo D’Souza’s wife, Lizelle, for a comment, she dismissed the reports as untrue and said, “No, it’s false, nothing as such.” Further offering a clarification, she said, “Even we read it. We got spam emails on the company email ID regarding something else about which we have informed the cops. The cyber department is looking into it and even they feel it’s spam.” Giselle further said that the police are investigating the matter and said, “If there’s anything, the police will look into it. I don’t know if its linked to this (death threats). Maybe the media has misinterpreted. It may be for something else and they must have clubbed thing with others.”
When asked if the spam emails contained any death threats, she said, “No. It must have gone to multiple people, not only one. I think its just been misinterpreted. Some other emails with this.” Meanwhile, Mumbai police are separately investigating the death threat emails sent to Kapil Sharma and Rajpal Yadav. According to a report in ANI, an email was sent to the Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 actor’s account in December 2024 by a person named Bishnu, allegedly threatening his family and associates, which forced his wife to lodge a complaint.
