Salman Khan had fled the spot after the accident and surrendered to police after 8 hours. Medical report showed that he was under the influence of alcohol.
The matter then reached the sessions court where Salman Khan filed a revision petition denying charges levelled against him. The court is to give its order today on Salman's petition.
Chemical analysis report filed in 2007 had showed that Salman had 62 mg alochol in his blood on the night of accident. Salman's bodyguard Ravindra Patil had then tried to shield the actor by telling he police that it was he who was driving the car. 64 witnesses testified before the court, and ultimately it was proved that it was Salman who was driving the vehicle.
After much persuasion, Ravindra Patil became the prosecution witness, but later he became hostile and disowned his own statement. Patil died in a mysterious accident in 2007.
