New Delhi: Salman Khan may see a new light in the firing case whose responsibilty the Lawrence Bishnoi gang had taken. A couple of days ago, Salman’s ex-girlfriend Somy Ali issued a public apology on his behalf. Now, the head of the Bishnoi gang reacted to it and issued an official statement. 

President of the All India Bishnoi Society, Devendra Budiya, has said that the community will forgive Salman Khan in the blackbuck case which began in 1998. As per a Live Hindustan report, Budiya said that this will only be done on one condition.

Devendra Budiya was quoted in Hindi as saying, “The Bishnoi community will consider an apology of Salman himself apologises as the mistake was not made by Somy Ali, but by Salman. No one can apologise on his behalf. If he himself comes to the temple and seeks forgiveness, our samaj( community) will think about forgiving because one of our 29 rules is forgiveness.”

“Salman should further take an oath that he will never make such a mistake and will work to protect wildlife and the environment, then we can consider a decision to forgive him.”The report quoted him saying.

About 1998 blackbuck case

During the shooting of Sooraj Barjatya’s 1999 film ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’, Salman Khan had reportedly hunted a blackbuck  in Mathania near Jodhpur, Rajasthan.

He was seen alongside Tabu, Sonali Bendre, Neelam, all of whom were booked in 1998. Salman Khan was sentenced to five years of rigorous imprisonment in 2018, but was issued bail.

Somy Ali’s apology to Bishnoi community on behalf of Salman Khan

In an interaction with Hindustan Times, Somy Ali shared her concern for Salman Khan’s safety after the recent firing incident happened outside his Mumbai home on April 14. 

She told the publication, “I don’t support hunting as a sport but this event took place so many years ago. Salman was much younger in 1998. I want to request the head of the Bishnoi tribe to forget about it and move on. I apologise on his behalf (Salman) if he has made a mistake and please forgive him.”

“Taking someone’s life is not acceptable, be it Salman or an average common man. If you want justice, you should move to the court. I have full faith in India’s judicial system and lawyers, the same as America. I want to appeal to the Bishnoi community that harming Salman Khan will not bring back the blackbuck. Whatever happened to me cannot be changed; let bygones be bygones. I have made peace with myself. My life is completely dedicated to No More Tears now.”
