'Sanjay Dutt an honorable man'

by Guest Tue Mar 26, 2013 12:15 pm

It is clear from the above facts that Sanjay Dutt is an honourable person who according to the Supreme Court had made a voluntary confession setting out all the facts and circumstances in which he had acquired the automatic weapon, the confession which the Supreme Court found to be voluntary and true and his conviction is also based on his own voluntary and truthful confession.

It would be a travesty of justice if such a person has to go to jail now merely because an important provision of law has been overlooked by the Supreme Court. Either the Supreme Court in a review or curative petition or any other constitutional authority which is entitled to grant him relief must do justice by making an order so that an honourable person like Sanjay Dutt does not have to suffer any more.

Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh on Monday said actor Sanjay Dutt had been "foolish" for getting involved with the accused in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts but he still regarded him as a "great man".

"Sanjay Dutt just acted foolish," Singh was quoted by CNN-IBN as saying. Singh told the TV news channel that Dutt was being targeted because of his late father Sunil Dutt's efforts to create communal harmony. Singh's statement may create controversy while Dutt's friends and supporters are building a campaign to have his prison sentence in the serial blasts case reduced.

Every time Sanjay Dutt’s name surfaces in the media in connection with the 1993 Mumbai blasts, the inhabitants of this village in Uttar Pradesh go on an overdrive to express their solidarity with the actor.

Chilbila, a nondescript village in Meja tehsil in Allahabad district’s eastern fringes, was where Jaddanbai, Nargis’ mother and Sanjay Dutt’s maternal grandmother, was brought up.

The village’s connection with Sanjay Dutt may be a bit tenuous, but for the residents it’s a good enough celebrity connection — one that would deliver them a miracle, the kind many villages in India pray for to escape rack and ruin. The Chilbila villagers arrange special community programmes and prayers at temples and mosques, with some offering “chadars” at the local shrine for the actor’s well-being, in the hope that that Mr. Dutt will eventually visit them and end their infrastructural and livelihood woes.

A simple question to Rash.

If you or I have done the same crime as this Munna, should you/I be pardoned?

remember also that he has already served 18 months in jail and the incident is more than 20 years old. It seems to me that like Shylock in the Merchant of Venice there are many people here who want 'a pound of flesh' from Sanjay Dutt.

by Guest Tue Mar 26, 2013 3:38 pm

he spent 18 months for a 5 year punishment crime.
the argument that says its a 20 yr old case, is as lame as you. very lame. its as lame as indian judicial system. very lame.

so ~~devil's advocate~~ rashmun pls dont make me angry.

“He is a nice man” goes the refrain. How many nice people do you know who store automatic weapons and grenades capable of causing carnage? Then there is the refrain that says he was too young. At 33? When leaders like Digvijaya Singh put out statements that say, “Sanjay Dutt is not a criminal, he is not a terrorist. Sanjay Dutt, at a young age, in the atmosphere of that time, thought that perhaps the way Sunil Dutt had been raising his voice against communalism and favoured the minorities, then perhaps he could be attacked,” they are making excuses for terror.

What do you say to all those people who are minorities, or favour minority rights and would never think of going down the path of violence or terror? Indeed, what do you tell people whose family members have been arrested and convicted for terror – that it is excusable because they thought they were in danger? Is this the same approach to dealing with Maoists who believe that the only way they can get heard by the State is by committing acts of terror?

The Muslim MP Ehsaan Jaffery was cut up by swords by a mob during the Gujarat riots. Merlot Daruwala made the point earlier that if Mr Jaffery had an automatic weapon he may have survived the mob attack.

Rash,
Did you read the entire blog completely and re-read (Bhushan's write up). It looks like he is mocking Kaju katli/pardon requests. I think the comment describes this well.

Mr. Bhushan. Great sense of humor. A very nice sarcasm.

The Hindu does not publish satire. This means Bhushan was serious and so you can stop smiling.

The comments to the article are more sensible and logical than the article. It's a shame that this Bhushan guy was once the law minister of the country.
