Whatever fans on social sites might say, its obvious that all the stars had gone to hunt for the black bucks and as stated by the eye witness and FIR, the black buck/s was shot dead by Salman. He was saved so many times and now has been convicted. The judgment is late but then its because the judiciary is heavily loaded. Even if it is late, it happened at least. Some solace to the bishnoi community. Judgement is always given based on action and not popularity or status in society and every action has a consequence.


Salman can approach High Court and Supreme court. Still a long way to go.

All these cases do give one statement loud and clear that the celebrity won't be spared from now on.


=============================================
From Judge's words>


"The way the accused killed two innocent black bucks in violation of the wildlife laws...he is a film star, people emulate him and look up to him... and there has been a rise in poaching incidents, so leniency is not justified given the severity of the crime, the evidence and the circumstances," said the judge, explaining his decision.

Four other Bollywood stars, Saif Ali Khan, Sonali Bendre, Tabu and Neelam Kothari, were acquitted for lack of evidence. The stars were shooting for a film near Jodhpur when the hunt took place. Salman Khan was accused by witnesses of spotting a herd of blackbucks and shooting dead two.

I find it strange everyone else involved is getting acquitted. But it's even more sad when people are defending him saying "he has done charity work, he makes so much money for bw" so? He did a crime, and a few at that. Why should he be spared? If some rapist beats and kills his wife then turns around and does some "charity" should he be walking around as if nothing happened? I guess as per some people's logic, yes. No faith in humanity.

While Salman has faced a harsh punishment of serving 5 years in prison, other actors who were involved in the killing have been acquitted of their crimes.
Saif Ali Khan, Tabu, Neelam and Sonali Bendre too were accused in the blackbuck poaching. The Bishnoi Sabha, which had filed the blackbuck poaching case, has now decided to appeal against the acquittal of the four co-accused in the case.

Wow, the Bishnois are not gonna reset until the others are behind bars as well.

OMG he killed TWO BLACKBUCKS? 😲
That is so awful and disgusting! He deserves to be convicted and punished.
But unfortunately his money and power will help him go free again.

See! He is being screwed by the powerful so.
I also saw a clip of his interview, crouching with Koel or something and the lady asked him about this case and he told her very genuinely that he did not shoot the blackbuck and there is long story behind it...

I believe what this guys are talking about. He is innocent and people need to realize that he is being framed wrongfully.

I agree but your past criminal history is always taken into consideration. They always see if its just one time incident of a hunter on a weekend trip vs an incorrigible criminal which is determined on case by case basis.


The limited jail time is for repeat offenders or someone who has poached a numerous amount of endangered species. Most people are just fined. This is for Canada though and not India but tbh I haven't heard of such harsh sentencing in India either.

I read that the judge said that he wanted to make an example out of him since he's a role model in which case his stardom is being used against him.

Anyway, it just seems extreme to me.
