Expressing unhappiness over the failure of police to trace original documents in the 2001 hit-and-run case involving actor Salman Khan, a sessions court today gave them a last chance to locate the papers by September 12.

Police informed the court for the first time today that even the case diaries were missing.

Earlier, they had stated that only 7 of the 63 original statements of witnesses were traceable, although true copies were available.

Salman's lawyer Srikant Shivade argued that as per law the original papers were required to be produced before the trial court, while the police argued that as per practice in Mumbai courts the trial can go on with the true copies.
