Jodhpur Court on Monday acquitted Bollywood star Salman Khan of submitting a fake affidavit in the black buck poaching case. Salman's affidavit claimed that he had lost the license documents of his weapons through the license had been sent for renewal.
The actor’s counsel argued his intention wasn’t to submit a false affidavit. “Hence it is not expedient in the interest of justice to proceed against Salman as it is a bonafide mistake of his client. The licence was submitted to the Police Commissioner in Mumbai, and Deputy Commissioner of Police has made the statement in the court also,” said the lawyer.
Earlier last month, the Rajasthan High Court had sent fresh notices to Saif Ali Khan, Neelam, Tabu, Sonali Bendre and Dushyant Singh on a plea filed by the government against their acquittal in the black buck poaching case.
In October 1998, a total of three cases in connection with poaching and one under the Arms Act was registered against Salman. The 52-year-old actor allegedly shot two blackbucks in Bhagoda ki Dhani in Kankani village near Jodhpur during the shooting of 'Hum Saath Saath Hain'.
