Salman case shows VIPs can avoid jail: Bedi

NEW DELHI, May 8: The bail given to Bollywood star Salman Khan has given the impression that VIPs and the rich can avoid jail with “best legal aid”, former police officer Kiran Bedi said on Friday. The “general impression” after the Bombay High Court suspended Salman’s sentence in the 2002 hit-and-run case “is if u r a VIP, celebrity, privileged, rich and u can access best legal aid, you can avoid jail”, tweeted Bedi, now a Bharatiya Jata Party leader.
