JAIPUR: A local court in Jodhpur will pronounce the judgement in the Chinkara poaching case on Monday in which Bollywood actor Salman Khan is an accused.
The Chief Judicial Magistrate court of Jodhpur Justice B K Jain who heard the defence counsel's arguement on March 28 has fixed the judgement date for April 10, Hastimal Sarswat, the counsel of Salman, said.
Salman will be present along with five other accused, Bal Angre, Pratap Singh, Om Singh, Dushyant Singh and Goverdhan Singh.
The case is related to 1988 when a Chinkara (deer species) was killed allegedly by Salman and other accused at Ghora farmhouse.
Last week on April 7, the CJM rejected Salman's application for summoning a witness Harish Dulani who was missing from the court appearances for many years, Saraswat said.
Dulani was said to be the main witness in the poaching case, and reportedly retracted his earlier statement that he had seen Salman killing the animal. Following Dulani's statement to TV news channel, Salman's counsel Sarswat has moved the application in the CJM court seeking Dulani's fresh statement which the court rejected.
