Salman Khan ‘man without brains’

MNS President Raj Thackeray called his long-time friend, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan “a man without brains” over his tweets ahead Yakub Memon’s execution. “Salman is a man without brains, while his father is a respectable man. He does not read newspapers and does not know the law and thus went on tweeting in his (Yakub’s) favour.

Then there are people who sent letters to the President seeking mercy for the traitor. How can anybody question a Supreme Court order?” he asked. In a series of tweets, Salman argued that the wrong man is being hung for the crimes of Tiger Memon. Salman wrote, “Get tiger hang him. Parade him not his brother”. He later withdrew his statements and deleted the tweets.
