The Mumbai cops have issued a circular highlighting the lapses in the probe of Bollywood star Salman Khan’s hit and run case of 2002. Khan, whose Land Cruiser rammed into pavement dwellers killing one person, was acquitted by Mombay high court.
The move apparently was to avert the embarrassment of letting go a case involved with high profile people. The circular was issued to all the police stations dotted in Mumbai. The circular mentioned 16 flaws among many of which were procedural lapses of cops in the case.
The HC recently acquitted Khan of all the charges in the hit-and-run case. However, the Maharashtra government is planning to file an appeal against the verdict of HC in Supreme Court. Cops have been asked to present water-tight cases in future by taking lessons from the lapses made in Salman Khan’s case.
