Salim Khan – Whatever Salman has Tweeted is ridiculous and meaningless

Controversy’s favorite child Salman Khan is in the news yet again after he raised question over Yakub Memon’s capital punishment in a series of tweets. In a series of tweets, Salman Khan urged Indian government to hang Tiger Memon and not his brother Yakub, who is apparently the convict for the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts

However, Salim Khan on being questioned on his son’s statements, slammed him saying, “Whatever Salman has written is ridiculous and meaningless. Salman is ignorant of the issue and people should not take him seriously.”

Contrary to this, Salim Khan himself also urged that Yakub should not be hanged, he said, “Yakub should be kept in jail rather be hanged. Keeping him alive is a bigger punishment.”

Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam urged Salman to withdraw his tweets, “In 1993 when celebrities were arrested, Bollywood came out and supported them saying “you’re innocent”. I warned them back then saying not to interfere with judicial process. I hope that Salman does not do the same. He should understand the agony of people.”

According to investigating agency, Tiger got Yakub involved in planning and plotting the serial blasts that killed at least 257 people and injured about 700 on March 12, 1993.

The Supreme Court had dismissed Yakub’s curative petition against death sentence and he will now be hanged on July 30. The curative petition was the last legal recourse available for Memon.
