Hit-and-run case: Salman moves SC, says he should be heard

January 28, 2016 14:52

Actor Salman Khan today moved the Supreme Court, saying he should also be heard while the appeal of the Maharashtra government, challenging his acquittal by the Bombay High Court in the 2002 hit-and-run case, is being heard.

It is likely that senior advocate Harish Salve will appear for the actor. Salve had handled the case and saved Khan from having to spend time in jail after he was convicted of culpable homicide.

Attorney General of India, Mukul Rohatgi, will be issued notification to appear for the Maharashtra government, though there has not been any formal statement issued by Khan or his lawyers.
