JODHOUR: In a setback for Bollywood
actor Salman Khan, a Jodhpur court
on Thursday rejected his plea for re-
examination of witnesses in a case
related to illegal possession and
used of arms.
Salman Khan had filed an appeal for
re-examination of five witnesses in
the case registered against him
under Arms Act.
A case had been registered against
Salman Khan by the forest
department under the Arms Act
mentioning that licence of the arms
used by Khan during alleged
poaching of black bucks at village
Kankani near Jodhpur on the
intervening night of 1-2 October,
1998, had expired and hence the
actor had been using the arms
illegally.
Black buck is a protected animal its
hunting is a punishable offence.
On April 23, the chief judicial
magistrate had accepted an
application moved by Khan's counsel
seeking exemption from his
appearance in the court on the
ground of ill health, and asked him
to appear today to record his
statement.
Besides Khan, actors Saif Ali Khan,
Sonali Bendre, Tabu and Neelam
were accused of poaching near
Jodhpur during the shooting of the
film 'Hum Saath Saath Hain'.
