Homicide trial set for Indian actor Salman Khan Associated Press Writer
NEW DELHI — A Mumbai court announced Wednesday that Indian movie star Salman Khan will face trial next month on a homicide charge for his involvement in a fatal road accident more than 10 years ago. One man was killed and four people were injured when Khan drove his car into a group of homeless people sleeping on a Mumbai sidewalk in September 2002. The court charged Khan with culpable homicide not amounting to murder, said Abha Singh, a lawyer involved in the case. Khan could face up to 10 years in jail if convicted. The court also charged Khan with negligent driving and causing grievous hurt to the victims, Singh
said. Khan, who was present in court, pleaded not guilty to the charges. The trial is scheduled to begin Aug. 19. The court ruled that Khan, 47, would not have to attend every hearing of the case, but would have to appear in court whenever the judge required his presence. The actor was earlier being tried in the case for the lesser offense of causing death by negligence, which carries a maximum penalty of two years in jail.

NEW YORK — Actress Samantha Futerman is collaborating on a book about her improbable discovery that she had an identical twin. Futerman, whose credits include the TV series “The Big C” and the film “Memoirs of a Geisha,” has a deal with G.P Putnam’s Sons. She will work on the book with Anais Bordier, the adopted daughter of a French family whose friends had seen Futerman’s
movies and swore that the actress and Bordier looked exactly alike. Bordier learned that she and Futerman, who grew up in New Jersey, were born in the same town in South Korea on Nov. 19, 1987. She contacted Futerman earlier this year through Facebook and the women discovered in May they were indeed twins. “Our incredible twist of fate can lift one to rejoice that anything is possible, and the biggest boundaries in life are the

However, after a magistrate heard the evidence, he invoked the more serious charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder against the actor in February. Khan, one of Bollywood’s most popular stars, has acted in about 90 Hindilanguage films in his 25-year career. Indian courts are notorious for delays and a trial can take years to complete.

LONDON - Britain’s Prince William, his wife Kate and their newborn baby son were spending their first day at home as a family Wednesday, a day after the royal couple showed off the future monarch to the world.
A smiling Kate told the massed ranks of international media on Tuesday that motherhood was “very emotional”, while William said they were still choosing a name and revealed that he had already changed the baby’s nappy. The new third-in-line to the throne raised a tiny hand above his white blankets but remained
peaceful, despite deafening cheers from well-wishers and the shouts of photographers outside St Mary’s Hospital in London. “It’s a special time,” said the 31year-old Duchess of Cambridge, who was wear-
ing a cornflower-blue dress with her brunette hair loose. “I think any new parent would know what this feeling feels like.” The duke, also 31, told reporters that “he’s got her looks, thankfully” as Kate playfully demurred, then added: “He’s got a good pair of lungs on him, that’s for sure”.
ones we set for ourselves,” Futerman said in a statement issued by Putnam, a division of Penguin Random House. “There are so many possibilities and so many crazy things that happen in a lifetime, and it is a gift to embrace them all,” she said. “All I know is I have an innate, unconditional love toward this relative stranger.” Putnam announced Tuesday that the book is currently untitled and is scheduled to come out in the fall of 2014.
