Mumbai: A witness in the 2002 hit-and-run case involving Salman Khan on Tuesday retracted his police statement in a court, saying he had not said that the actor had got down from the driver’s seat of his vehicle and had run away after the accident. “My statement recorded by police that I saw Salman coming out from the driver’s seat and running away from the spot is incorrect,” the witness, Sachin Kadam, a security guard of Neel Sagar Hotel, told the Judge. Earlier, he had told police that he had seen the actor getting down from the driver’s seat of his car and going away from the scene of the mishap. Kadam said he had only told the police that a big car came and rammed into the shutter of a shop. He was confronted with his police statement on Tuesday but he retracted.
