Sir — This refers to the article, “Bail is the rule for privileged” (June 5) by Sankar Sen. The news of actor Salman Khan getting respite from the Mumbai High Court in the hit-and-run case, which was followed by reports that the actor also got the court’s permission to shoot in Dubai, has sent a wave of happiness among his fans.
The prosecution’s reported comment vis-à-vis this relief, that hundreds of other culprits of small theft and bribes are languishing in jail, does not carry weight. These criminals clearly cannot be equated with Salman Khan! Now the ball is with the High Court. lets see which way the wind blows!
