A Sessions court has asked Bollywood actor Salman Khan to present himself in the court on February 19 in connection with the Chinkara poaching case.

Judge Mahendra Maheshwari, last Saturday, has also sought original documents submitted to the High Court by the Rajasthan government pertaining to the case.

The court asked Salman Khan’s counsel to ensure the presence of his client on February 19, Public Prosecutor Ram Sukh Sharma said.

In February 2006, Salman Khan was convicted under the Wild Life Act for poaching a Chinkara at Bhawad near Jodhpur during the shooting of film Hum Saath Saath Hain in September 1998.

Khan was sentenced to one-year imprisonment and was slapped a fine of Rs 5,000.
