Apart from Salman, actor Saif Ali Khan, Tabu, Neelam, Sonali Bendre and a local named Dushyant Singh were accused in the case. While Salman was found guilty under Section 9/51 of the Wildlife (Protection) Act, others were acquitted due to lack of evidence against them.
The Tubelight start spent two nights in Jodhpur Central Jail and was later granted bail on two bail bonds of Rs 25,000 each. The Jodhpur court had directed Salman to seek permission before stepping outside the country.
