Breaking: Salman Khan Leaves For Court To Apply For BAIL
- 7 years ago
Much to the delight of Salman Khan's fans, the Bombay High Court suspended his sentence of five years imprisonment and granted the superstar bail pending appeal, in his 2002-hit-and-run case.
After hearing his lawyer Amit Desai's argument, Justice A.M. Thipsay suspended Khan's jail term. Thipsay said that there is no law that says if there is alcohol it is culpable homicide. In his argument, Desai asked why Kamal Khan, who was present with Salman when the accident took place, was not interrogated.
After hearing his argument, Thipsay said that he wants to know how many witnesses deposed before the Sessions Court and the magistrate court and if they had any after thoughts.
On Wednesday, a Sessions Court sentenced Khan to five years in jail, after pronouncing him guilty in the 2002 hit-and-run case.
The court today announced Salman Khan guilty of all the charges including culpable homicide, in the 2002 hit-and-run case and now, the quantum of punishment has also been decided. The court has sentenced him to five years in prison and the superstar will have to move the High Court to apply for bail.
Sources claim that Salman will be taken into custody soon and may be taken to the Arthur Road jail. Culpable homicide attracts imprisonment up to 10 years however, Salman Khan's lawyer pleaded the court to be lenient with him in view of his humanitarian work.
On September 28, 2002, an inebriated Khan rammed his Toyota Land Cruiser into a pavement killing one person and injuring four, outside a bakery in Bandra, Mumbai.
