The Bandra court issued summons and a show-cause notice to Bollywood actor Salman Khan and the Mumbai police on Monday, following delays in the trial of the Bollywood actor in a 2002 hit-and-run case. At a press conference last month, lawyer Abha Singh had briefed the media about how Khan was manipulating the case with the help of the police.

Singh, a former bureaucrat and wife of former IPS officer Y P Singh had filed a petition in the Bandra court on November 2, and argued that while trials were promptly concluded in other sensitive cases, it had dragged on in Khan’s case.
