 The Bombay High Court suspended the five-year jail sentence to Bollywood superstar Salman Khan paving the way for him to apply for and seek regular bail.

Accordingly, Salman will not be taken into custody, proving a major relief for the actor who was granted two days interim bail after his sentencing last Wednesday (May 6).
