Salman Khan decides to surrender in Jodhpur today





Posted on 08.25.07 under the Category Entertainment, India News.

Bollywood actor Salman Khan, whose bail plea in connection with the 1998 Chinkara shooting case has been rejected, will surrender before a

Jodhpur court today. On Friday 24th August, the

Jodhpur court in Rajasthan rejected his appeal against the conviction, leaving him with the option of surrendering to the court or being arrested. The actor failed to appear for the hearing Friday, saying he missed the flight to Jodhpur from

Hyderabad where he is currently shooting.

 

During the shooting of the movie “Hum Saath Saath Hain” in 1998, Salman and others poached two Chinkaras at Ujiyala Bhakhar near Ghoda Farm. The court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, which had convicted Salman last year, issued the non-bailable warrant against him yesterday afternoon and sent it to police for execution. Salman’s counsel Dipesh Mehta said: “We would certainly file a review petition in high court as soon as possible.

 

A team from the

Jodhpur police will be reportedly leaving for executing the warrant today.  

“We have informed authorities in

Jodhpur about the surrender,” Mehta said.
