The prosecution argued that ample opportunity had been given to defence earlier for cross-examining Patil.<\/p>\n<p>Claiming that the mishap was a pure accident, Shivade said the tyre burst, which led to the accident, was not in anybody\u2019s control.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Judge D W Deshpande, on a plea of Khan\u2019s lawyer, issued contempt of court notices Monday to an inspector of Bandra police station for recreating the crime scene and to two city newspapers for publishing photographs of the same.<\/p>\n<p>The special public prosecutor, Pradeep Gharat, through a notice, has also asked the inspector to state reasons as to why he was not informed about the same.<\/p>\n<p>The newspapers had on Sunday carried news and photos showing a police team from Bandra police station driving in a vehicle from J W Marriott Hotel in Juhu to the accident spot to prove that it takes 30 minutes to cover this distance of around 8 km, and not five minutes, as claimed by Khan\u2019s lawyer.<\/p>\n<p>On April 18, the defence lawyer had produced videos in court, including an interactive Google map, showing the entire journey from Marriott to the accident spot and another video of a truck accident due to a tyre burst, to support his case during his final arguments.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecutor had told the court that he would also present in video form, his case.On Monday, however, the prosecutor told the court that he was not informed about the inspector\u2019s actions.<\/p>\n<p>Salman Khan hit-and-run case<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the concluding day of arguments in actor Salman Khan\u2019s hit-and-run\u00a0case on Monday, the defence claimed the prosecution had wrongly accused the actor while it was his driver who was at the wheel when the accident took place.
