Bollywood actor Salman Khan on Thursday took to Twitter and expressed his gratitude to his fans for their continued support despite numerous cases going on against him. The post came hours after the Jodhpur District and Sessions Court dismissed a petition filed by the Rajasthan government alleging he had submitted a false affidavit in the blackbuck poaching case.
Salman shared his photo and wrote, "To all my fans.. thank u for your love support n concern. Khayal rakho apna n parivaar ka. God bless n loveee u tooo..."
What Was The Case?

In 1998, Salman was arrested for hunting two blackbucks in Kankani village near Jodhpur during the shooting of the film "Hum Saath Saath Hain". At that time, a case under Arms Act was registered against the actor and the court had asked him to submit his arms licence.
Salman submitted an affidavit in the court in 2003, saying that he had lost the licence. He also lodged an FIR at the Bandra police station in Mumbai in this connection. However, the court later came to know that Khan's arm licence was not lost, but had been submitted for renewal.
Public prosecutor Bhavani Singh Bhati had then demanded that a case of misleading the court be filed against the actor. However, on Thursday, the Jodhpur District and Sessions Court judge Raghavendra Kachwal dismissed the pleas filed against Khan.
Earlier on Tuesday, Salman had apologised before the court for 'mistakenly' submitting a false affidavit in 2003 during his hearing in the blackbuck poaching case.
