It is worth mentioning here that Sidhu has demanded Z Plus security citing death threats. Along with this, Sidhu's lawyer had told the court that the policemen assigned to protect Navjot Sidhu are nearing retirement. Navjot Singh Sidhu, defending himself in the court, said that he has received death threats several times. This is the reason why the Center provided him Z Plus security.

Significantly, Sidhu's security was withdrawn when he went to jail in the road rage case, but in the meantime, he was asked to provide security when he came out of jail. A few days after his release from prison, an unidentified suspect was seen on the roof of his house. In this case, the Patiala police had also registered a case against the unknown person and the investigation in the matter is ongoing.
