In a major relief to superstar, the Mumbai sessions court has canceled bailable warrant against Salman Khan in connection with the 2002 hit-and-run case, on Saturday.

The government's appeal against Salman's acquittal in the 16-year-old-case is pending before the apex court.

Earlier this month, Salman Khan was sentenced to five-years jail term for killing two blackbucks in 1998. He spent two nights at the Jodhpur Central Jail before he was granted bail. On being free, Salman Khan resumed shooting for his upcoming movie 'Race 3'. Notably, in the hit-and-run case, Khan was acquitted of all charges by the Bombay HC due to lack of evidence.
