Elon Musk claims assassination risk, defends right to free speech

New Delhi: Twitter's new owner Elon Musk has claimed that he may face an assassination attempt. During an interaction on social media, the Tesla owner said that he is in "great danger" that someone will shoot him or something bad will happen to him.

Despite this, Elon Musk said during a two-hour audio chat on Twitter Spaces that he would "love to go to a parade of open cars."

"If I say frankly, the risk of something bad happening to me or getting shot is very high. If you want to kill someone, it is not that difficult, so I would hope that no one would want to do that." And nothing like this should happen to me, but there is danger," Elon Musk said.
