Bollywood star Salman Khan has been handed a five-year jail term for poaching.
The 52-year-old was convicted for shooting two blackbucks – a rare antelope – in 1998. The court in Jodhpur also fined him 10,000 rupees ($154; £109).
He killed the animals whilst shooting a film in the western state of Rajasthan.
Four other actors who starred with him in the movie and were also charged with the offence have been acquitted.
Khan can appeal the decision in a higher court.
