Letter Published in The NationaUAE on 9 April 18,Celebrities must also feel the long arm of the law
Regarding your story Salman Khan leaves prison after two nights in jail (April 8), it took two decades to convict this Bollywood star. Nevertheless, his conviction shows the judiciary still acts, irrespective of celebrity status.
This actor is known for many remarkable movies, with millions invested in him by the Bollywood film fraternity. While the fact he was granted bail is good news for his fans and the film industry, it is not so good for animal rights groups.
Next month his bail application will be heard before the court and we will have to see then which wins out, celebrity status or judiciary? It would be a sad state of affairs if it is the former.
