UnBHAIased ruling? #SalmanVerdict rules Twitter after judge finds Khan guilty of culpable homicide

Twitter has predictably been aflutter thanks to the verdict by a Mumbai sessions court that found Salman Khan guilty of culpable homicide, thirteen years after he is believed to have run over pavement dwellers, killing one person. [caption id=“attachment_2141579” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Salman Khan has been convicted in the 2002 hit and run case. Sachin Gokhale/Firstpost[/caption] #SalmanVerdict was unsurprisingly the top trend on Twitter, given that it was the most discussed topic on the social media site even before the verdict was pronounced. The tweets were representational of almost every emotion humanly possible. From anger to disbelief to sadness to joy to self righteousness, it was all there, along with a (un?)healthy dose of Twitter wit. Now is the time to truly Be Human…
