Bollywood actor Salman Khan is to go on trial accused of homicide over allegations he rammed his car into a group of homeless people – more than 10 years ago.
One man was killed and another three were injured in the alleged incident as the group slept on a Mumbai sidewalk in September 2002.
The star faces up to 10 years in jail if convicted.
He had earlier been tried for the lesser offence of causing death by negligence, which carries a maximum punishment of two years in jail.
Monday’s court decision is a blow for Khan who is one of Bollywood’s biggest stars.
The trial will begin July 19.
