The court may have acquitted Salman Khan. But who will save him from the wrath of social media?

If you thought that our judiciary does not differentiate between the rich and poor or the powerful and the powerless, then it's time for a reality check. The Bombay High Court just pronounced its verdict on the 2002 hit-and-run case involving Bollywood superstar Salman Khan.

The court said that Salman cannot be convicted in this case in which one pavement dweller lost his life and few others were injured. While all of his fans rejoiced after the verdict, many livid netizens took to Twitter and bashed the Bigg Boss 9 host and the verdict.

Here's how Twitter reacted:

Justice right now. #salmanverdict pic.twitter.com/62Lrs0lYX9

Amazing to see what charity-lifestyle brand like Being Human and a tear-jerker movie like Bajrangi Bhaijaan can do for you. #SalmanVerdict
