The Rajasthan High Court today deferred the hearing on Bollywood actor Salman Khan’s bail application till Friday.

The actor’s plea was listed in the court of Justice H R Panwar after Justice G K Vyas recused himself from the case on Wednesday. The actor is in jail in connection with the chinkara poaching case.

While calling for the case records, the judge deferred the hearing and ordered that it be listed for tomorrow. Dipesh Mehta, a Mumbai-based lawyer, and a Supreme Court advocate, Uday Lalit, appeared for the actor. Salman, who was arrested on Saturday, is lodged in Central Jail here after losing his appeal in the District and Sessions Court of Jodhpur against his sentence in the chinkara poaching case handed out by the Chief Judicial Magistrate on April 10.
