Dulani had confessed his statement to the bench and had been part of two or three hearings in a subordinate court in Rajasthan as well before his disappearance, claiming that he and his family were threatened.
In the sting operation conducted by ABP News, Dulani’s lawyer, Ashok Parihar, cited how he had entered into a deal with Salman Khan’s lawyer, Hastimal Saraswat. According to ABP News, Dulani had bought two plots from the amount he had received. But there is no proof of any kind of transfer between these two parties that can justify the deal.
The Chief Judicial Magistrate had ruled against Salman, despite Dulani’s absence. The Rajasthan High Court had asked the prosecution to present Harish Dulani before giving out Salman’s judgement. However, as the prosecution failed to present him before the Court, the Chief Judicial Magistrate acquitted the actor.
When asked about the actor’s acquittal to his lawyer, Hastimal Saraswat, he said, “It finally proves what we have been saying all along. There is no doubt that the police and the forest department had manipulated witnesses and even made up evidence. The HC rejected all arguments made by the presentation” .
Further, after Harish Dulani’s statement, Rajasthan Goverment, on Thursday, offered protection to him and decided to appeal against Salman Khan‘s acquittal in the Supreme Court.
