Abha Singh says, the trial court had ordered summons to be served on 39 witnesses, but police did not serve summons to 24 witnesses. Police told the court that it could not summon 12 out of the remaining 24, and two witnesses refused to take summons. Ultimately, only one witness appeared in court. Police even failed to produce the medical officer who had prepared the medical report.
Even the four injured victims were untraceable. One of them Abdullah Sheikh was traced to Mangalore, who occasionally visits Mumbai for brief periods. The vehicle ran over both his legs. Presently, Abdullah works in another bakery in Bandra.
Salman Khan had also requested the court that his Landcruiser be returned, but the trial court refused.
