Updated on Jul 25, 2016 05:23 pm IST
The Rajasthan High Court (HC) acquitted actor Salman Khan in connection with the 1998 Black Buck poaching case on Monday. The actor and seven others had been accused of killing a blackbuck and a chinkara in two separate cases while shooting for the movie 'Hum Sath Sath Hain' in the state. Khan had challenged a lower court's verdict that sentenced him to one year and 5 years of imprisonment under Wildlife Act for both the cases. The high court completed hearing the cases in the last week of May, but had reserved its decision for today.
