Verdict on Salman Khan’s Black Buck hunting case today

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is expected to be in Jodhpur today, as he awaits the verdict in a 16-year-old case of possession and use of illegal arms to poach chinkaras and blackbucks, both endangered species of deer.

“The case relates to both possession and use of illegal arms and the chief judicial magistrate’s court has kept February 25 for judgment” public prosecutor N.K. Sankhla of the court in Jodhpur, told reporters.

Salman along with Saif Ali Khan, Tabu, Neelam and Sonali Bendre were accused of poaching blackbucks on the midnight of October 2nd 1998, while shooting for their film ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’.

The verdict of the case coincides with the shooting schedule of his most recent film with Sooraj Barjatya titled ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’.

Two blackbucks, a protected animal under the Wildlife Protection Act, were killed on the outskirts of Kankani village near Jodhpur.
Sources say, if Salman is found to be guilty, he could be sentenced to three to seven years in jail, but could be out on bail almost immediately.

Final arguments in the case were completed on February 5 2015.

Update: The date of verdict has been pushed ahead to March 3rd.

  • @indicine

    I have noticed that there are many articles in the “Related” section these days which do not open when I click on them. Are they your draft articles? There’s this article titled, “Producers may lose 200 crores if Salman found guilty which is not opening (It says page not found.)

  • bhai tum jail kab jaoge…..lol hehehehe
    jokes apart i think he shdnt go to jail atleast for this case…….coz wen i was scrolling down i read a comment which just hit me……..that black buck hasnt contributed for anythig in india but salman did… js have written this.it can be used in the court as this statement itself defines what salman is for the country or for the people.on the other hand it was just a black buck. also when it comes to humans n animals i will go with the humans..this whole ecosystem belongs to us…we are the most vital part…prevention is a different thing but if it is violated there should not be sentences of 3 or 5 years

  • recently ye asbit kiya gya hai ki when salman did that hit nd run case – he wasnt having a driving licence.nd yet he was driving nd that too by drinking.
    there he injured 3 people nd one was killed by that.
    than this black bug case.
    he also hit aishawarya nd did “todfod” on set of chalte chalte.
    my king has never done this kind of irresponsible behaviour with him anytime.
    salman deserved jail nd he got it in 2005-06s.
    now again i want him to see behind black rodes.
    i have trust in law.
    will come late but will come true.
    i will be happiest when salman will again go to jail.
    waiting for that day.
    chahe aap kitni bhi tarakki krlo lekin aap kapastr aap ka kabhi pi6a nhai 6odta nd specially when u have done really worst in past.

  • All Salman haters wishing to see him in Jail. No matter whatever you say it will happen whatever written in his destiny. Except Damnnn many srk fans know this is the only way srk can beat Salman in domestic ranking n feeling insecure !!!!!!!

  • @IamAKN : It is proved you are more concerned about Salman n Aamir than srk by commenting on top on each of their news articles. Do whatever you want mannn !!!! But a single wish of prayer n good deed are much greater than millions of hatred n negative wishes !!!!!!!!!

  • @Badshah : Are you a Supreme court to give verdict or declare Salman as guilty in accident case ? Are you an eye witness ? if yes, then there cant be bigger coward than you. If no, zip your mouth n wait for law to come out with a verdict !!!!!!!!

  • @sani d u hv said right dude.

    It may create wrong impact to some celeb who do crime by any means ignorance or fun or unfortunate

    fun > black buck case

    unfortunate > hit n run case as he was too drunk.

    As one say ignorance of law is not for excuse

  • No,don’t send him to jail soon.because I want to see him defeated in domestic with out going to jail though he is out of reach in overseas/ww.this year is the time when he’ll be kicked out from the 2nd spot considering and amir from the 1st.
