An Indian court Monday adjourned the start of Bollywood
star Salman Khan's appeal over a five-year sentence for a deadly
hit-and-run at the request of the actor's lawyers, reports said.
The Bombay High Court deferred the hearing until July 20 to give time
for documents relating to the 2002 incident to be translated, according
to the Press Trust of India.
Khan, 49, was found guilty on May 6 of killing a homeless man with his SUV after a night out drinking in an upmarket bar in Mumbai 13 years ago.
The sentence was later suspended, pending an appeal, and Khan -- the star of more than 100 films and television shows -- was released on bail.
