Hit and run case: Court to give order on Mar 3 on Salman Khan's driving licence
Mumbai, Feb 27: A sessions court today reserved its order till March 3 on a plea of the prosecution in the 2002 hit-and-run case seeking a direction to actor Salman Khan to produce his driving licence to prove the charge that he was driving car at the time of mishap without valid papers.After hearing arguments on the application, Judge D W Deshpande said he would give his order on March 3. Special Public Prosecutor Pradeep Gharat argued that Khan did not possess a license when his car ran over people sleeping on the pavement in suburban Bandra on September 28, 2002, killing one person and injuring four.
He argued that the prosecution should prove its case that Khan was not holding driving licence without asking him to produce it. Earlier, a Regional Transport Officer had deposed in the court saying that Khan did not possess a driving licence when his car met with an accident in 2002.
He also produced office records to show that Khan had obtained licence only in 2004, two years after the mishap. In a related development, prosecution argued on its application seeking to bring on record statements given to a Magistrate by two crucial witnesses.
One was Ravindra Patil, police bodyguard of Khan at the relevant time and Dr Sanap who had conducted post mortem of a victim killed in the mishap.
While Patil died during the course of trial, Dr Sanap has settled down in USA. Both are not available to prosecution at this stage and hence their statements should be taken on record, said prosecutor Gharat.
Khan's lawyer admitted the death certificate of Patil but disputed its contents which said he had passed away due to Tuberculosis. Earlier, the trial was conducted by a Magistrate but when the aggravated charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder was added, the case was transferred to sessions court and a fresh trial is being held.

Kapoors! Ranbir's girlfriend is the admin of this group and has added
her near and dear ones which include Neetu Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, Ridhima
Kapoor Sahni and her mother Suzanne Torquette. Clearly, looks like
Katirna is already one of the Kapoors!
Even more garma-garam khaber is that Ranbir's daddy dearest has already excused himself from the group. So, Rishi is the first one to exit this family WhatsApp group. We're sure that the actor didn't wanna be a part of the girlie banter.
