  • September 28, 2002. Salman was arrested for rash and negligent driving. On a collision with a local bakery, his car lost control as it ran over some people who had been sleeping on a Mumbai sidewalk. One person died and three were injured in the mishap. He was later found to be not guilty of Vehicular homicide.[1]

  • In 2005, he was accused of threatening Ms. Rai four years back, then his ex-girlfriend, to appear at several events sponsored by the Mumbai Underworld, and boasting of his connections to organized crime.
