The 18-year-long case has finally come to an end with Rajasthan High Court acquiting Salman Khan in the 1998 blackbuck and chinkara poaching case. Twitter reactions on the case have been mostly extreme and divided.
While the superstar's strong fan base is supporting the verdict, there are others who are questioning the court's order and calling it unfair.
Two separate cases had been registered against Khan under Section 51 of Wildlife Protection Act for poaching of two chinkaras in village Bhawad on 26-27 September, 1998 and one chinkara in Mathania (Ghoda Farm) on 28-29 September, 1998. The trial court (CJM) had convicted him in both the cases sentencing him to one-year and five-year imprisonment.
Khan's acquittal in the Mumbai hit-and-run case and the poaching cases are nearly identical. In both cases, he was sentenced by the trial courts and acquitted in the High Court.
Here are some clever and unintentionally funny tweets about another narrow escape by Salman Khan. When people shared their concern about time and money

Makes sense right?
2015: "Salman Khan wasn't drunk"2016: "Bhai didn't kill the blackbuck"2017: "Actually the blackbuck was driving Salman's car that night"— Akshar (@AksharPathak) July 25, 2016

Justice is not 'free' yet?
Ironical how much money Salman would have spent to get acquitted and yet people are calling him 'free' from all charges.#SalmanVerdict— The-Lying-Lama ☔️ (@KyaUkhaadLega) July 25, 2016

Because BO success is everything! Morals? What's that.
Haters are in a state of mourning and deep shock. Their stars can't touch @BeingSalmanKhan at the BO hence the outrage #SalmanVerdict— Naveed Afzal (@Nav_SULTAN16) July 25, 2016
Finally JUSTICE for @BeingSalmanKhan even though it's been horrendously delayed for close to 20 years #SalmanVerdict— Naveed Afzal (@Nav_SULTAN16) July 25, 2016
