Do you think Sanjay Dutt was unfairly convicted?

[jaunty]

He was never found guilty of carrying grenades

The prosecution was only able to prove illegal possession of 9mm pistol and an AK-56 assault rifle, so lets not exaggerate the incident for self-serving agendas.

Isn't it strange that only Hindutva supporters are fully convinced about his guilt and are even exaggerating his guilt on the Mumbai blasts, whereas he was cleared of that charge?

Clearly his Muslim lineage is the sole driving factor motivating the witch hunt against him

MediaCrooks: Sanjay Dutt & The Bendy Bananas

Sanjay cant be pardoned by a governor.

 

[priti]

Half Muslim Was he a freaking kid to buy and keep AK 47s and relations with notorious gangsters/terrorist? If Sanjay Dutt has informed police about the AK 47s and weapons probably Mumbai blast could have been averted and 250 lives could have been saved. I purchased AK47s to protect my family argument is just lame.

if half muslim, he did so much , then as full muslim wonder what all he would have done

Jethmalani raps Katju, says Maharashtra governor lacks power to pardon Sanjay Dutt - Hindustan Times

Sanjay UNpardonable by Governor. S. Swamy to challenge any such move.

Plenty of hindu terrorists running around in India, but god forbid they catch a case.

"His ex-Lordship's (Katju's) letter to the governor of Maharashtra, is thus wholly misconceived and his loyal band of followers must seek other avenues, if they exist at all, to secure a reprieve for Dutt. Katju would be well advised to not let his heart rule his head even if he considers its pulls to be justified," Jethmalani said in a statement.

"For their part, Kumar and Tewari, both eminent men of law, would serve the interest of the nation better if they applied their energies to upholding the law, rather than blindly seeking exoneration for a convict who by design or dim-wittedness facilitated the death of so many innocent victims on that fateful day in Mumbai", he said.

As usual, well said.

i think its time a separate panel is setup to review all previous judgements of katju.....

this guy is so extremely opinionated and maverick that one wonders hw the hell he even became a judge.....

Rajnikanth: If film actor is a terrorist u dont punish him?
Rajinikanth disturbed over verdict on Sanjay Dutt - Times Of India

Mohanlal:
Sanjay Dutt deserves our compassion: Mohanlal - Entertainment - DNA

Acting in one-or-two movies in which he is the hero who saves India from terrorists or other sort of things make indians difficult to digest his jail.

My friend it was not infamous AK-47 but AK-56 (more expensive), elder brother of AK-47 with better range.

Why pardon just Sanjay Dutt: Daughter of another Mumbai blasts convict
Mumbai: As film stars and politicians join the chorus for actor Sanjay Dutt's pardon, daughter of Zaibunisa Kazi, who is facing similar charges as the actor, questions why her mother should not also get the same support?
Daughter of 1993 Mumbai blasts convict, Zaibunisa said, "I wish I was a celebrity or my mother was a celebrity or a sister of an MP. Even my mother would have got the kind of support Sanjay Dutt is getting. If it is on humanitarian grounds then why only Sanjay Dutt, why not Zaibunisa. Isn't she a human? Isn't she a citizen of this country?
The daughter of 70-year-old reacting to the clamour over pardon for Dutt after the debate was ignited by a comment by retired Justice Markandey Katju and which was followed by the political class seconding his opinion.

Zaibunisa's 40 year-old daughter, who didn't marry so that she can fight her mother's battle, is hopeful that a review potion will reduce the sentence.
Both Dutt and Zaibunisa Kazi were charged for possessing illegal arms and ammunition and also under the stringent TADA Act. While Zaibunisa got convicted under TADA, Sanjay Dutt not only got an acquital under TADA but despite substantial evidence the CBI did not challenge his acquittal in the Supreme Court.
Zaibunisa's lawyer Sushil Kumar said, "She was not found in possession of any weapons, no recovery was made from her, she did not give any confession. It was only on the basis of a confession of a co-accused that she was convicted, it is unfortunate."
Zaibunisa daughter added, "It is not easy living with five daughters, being a single woman and going through this. It is not easy and 20 years is a very long time." While for the judicial system, 1993 Mumbai Blasts case is a closed chapter, for many the ordeal isn't over yet.


Is it that our court are influenced by external things like emotions? Why sanjay dutt is not charged under TADA? Why he was given minim sentence?

 

[Ammyy]

What is so special about this case??

He did wrong so get punished as simple as that ... But how can congress leave this matter, cause this will help them for their dirty vote bank politics.

Because he is one of a kind half Muslim...

He said his mother is muslims only because it was election.

Not just congress.
