Second prosecution witness in the 1996 black buck hunting case on Wednesday identified actresses Sonali Bendre, Neelam and Tabu in a court here.
‘The next prosecution witness, Mangilal, also recognised Sonali Bendre, Tabu and Neelam in the court today during examination,’ assistant public prosecutor Praveen Verma said. On Tuesday, prosecution witness Sheraram had recognised them in the court. Both the villagers had claimed to have chased the vehicle in which the actors were going to hunt the antelope.
The actresses appeared in the court of chief judicial magistrate (Rural) on Wednesday for the identification. ‘Mangilal narrated the same description as that of Sheraram on Tuesday,’ said Verma.
Mangilal told the court that both he and Sheraram had chased the vehicle, with Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan and the three actresses were on board for hunting the black buck.
‘His statements matched with those given by him to the forest officials during investigation in 1998,’ Verma said. After the examination of Mangilal, cross examination of the previous witness, Sehraram, was resumed by the counsel of Salman Khan.
