You mean they are not, right ?

Salman Khan has two cases against him. Hit & run + drunken driving and hunting an endangered deer.

He will be punished for both.

hit and run

drunk driving as well!

hit and run

drunk driving as well!

Actually the sentence is for culpable homicide, all other charges are lesser. Nobody gets 5 years for a hit & run or drunk driving unless someone is dead and they are charged with culpable homicide.

Yes...they are not...not sure why this country have so much emotions for people who have played with Law...I saw the similar drama during Sanjay Dutt case...and there were morons who wanted him to be left alone!!

Actually the sentence is for culpable homicide, all other charges are lesser. Nobody gets 5 years for a hit & run or drunk driving unless someone is dead and they are charged with culpable homicide.

Hit and Run should definitely ask for a decent jail term....you can't just bulldoze someone down your car and leave them alone half dead!!
