A court in Jodhpur today ordered the personal appearance on May 19 of film stars Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Neelam, Tabu and Sonali Bendre in a black buck poaching case.

While ordering the personal appearance of the film stars, the district judicial magistrate of Jodhpur has directed to reframe the charges against them in connection with the poaching of two endangered black bucks in Kanakani village in 1998.

Recently, the additional district and session judge No. 3 ordered the dropping of some charges framed by the lower court against these film stars while partially allowing the revision petitions filed on behalf of Salman and others.

Counsels for Salman and other celebrities urged the court to fix the date of reframing the charges after May 14, since Salman is touring abroad these days.

They told the court that the appeal filed by Salman against his conviction in two different poaching cases is pending in the court and on May 19 he will be present in the court of the district and sessions judge for the hearing, and this date will be convenient for him and the others.
