All eyes are on a court in Jodhpur which is set to pronounce the verdict in the blackbuck poaching case that has in its crosshairs Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Sonali Bendre, Neelam, and Tabu.
The five Bollywood actors have reached Jodhpur to attend the hearing on Thursday at the court of chief judicial magistrate (Jodhpur Rural) which will put a closure, for the time being, on the case that has been hanging on the heads of the stars for 20 years.
Salman, who was in December 2015, acquitted in the 28 September 2002 hit-and-run case, may go to jail for six years if convicted of killing the antelope protected under the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972.

On 28 March, Judge Dev Kumar Khatri reserved the order after the final arguments were heard. The verdict is expected to be announced at around 11 am.
The actor is accused of killing two blackbucks on 2 October 1998 in Kankani village in Jodhpur during the shooting of ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’. He was accompanied by Saif, Sonali, Neelam and Tabu at the time of the killing.
For the past 20 years, the two witnesses from the Bishnoi community – which reveres the blackbuck – have maintained that Salman killed the blackbucks.
The actor has spent a week in jail after he was convicted in 2006 in a case related to the killing of Chinkara deer and sentenced to five years in prison. His sentence was suspended by the Rajasthan High Court.
The Rajasthan government has challenged the verdict in the Chinkara deer case in the Supreme Court.
The actor was previously acquitted in one other poaching case involving a Chinkara deer in Rajasthan.
Separate charges under the Arms Act against the actor for possession of an unlicensed gun were dropped.
Salman is currently one of the industry’s most bankable stars.
