Salman Khan heads back to the court
Wednesday, October 24, 2007
Bollywood actor Salman Khan will be appearing before the principal bench of the Rajasthan High Court in Jodhpur on Wednesday in connection with the 1998 Chinkara poaching case lodged against him.
Salman had filed the review petition against the District and Session Court's verdict of August 24 in which the court had rejected his appeal in the Ghoda Farm Chinkara poaching case and upheld five year imprisonment awarded to him by the lower trial court.
Salman was found guilty of poaching the Chinkara at Ujiyala Bhakhar near Ghoda Farm in 1998 while shooting for the film Hum Saath Saath Hain due to which he was convicted on April 10, 2006 with the court imposing a fine of Rs.25,000 on him.
Salman has also been sentenced to a year's imprisonment in another poaching case at Bhawad.
Bollywood actors Saif Ali Khan, Satish Shah, Sonali Bendre, Tabu and Neelam Kothari have also been acquitted in the case.
