Mumbai: People from the Hindi film fraternity took to Twitter to express their views on the Supreme Court’s verdict, Thursday, upholding the conviction of actor Sanjay Dutt and sending him to five years imprisonment.
Dutt, who was convicted under the Arms Act for illegally possessing a 9mm pistol and an AK-56 rifle, had been awarded six years imprisonment by the TADA (Terrorists and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act) court. As Dutt has already spent 18 months in jail, he will now have to spend another three and a half years in jail.
Reacting strongly in favour of Dutt, filmmaker Kunal Kohli wrote, “the real planners of the `93 blasts are sitting safely in Pakistan,till they are brought to book, justice will not be served. the `93 blast case should NOT be made about Sanjay Dutt.The Real planners are sitting safely in Pakistan like Osama Bin Laden was. The way america caught Osama Bin Laden,we need to do a similar operation if Pak doesn`t hand over the `93 blast masterminds living there (sic).”
Music director Vishal Dadlani expressed solidarity with Dutt and tweeted, “I stand with @duttsanjay , always will. He`s my brother. He made mistakes, but he`s served more than his time, in terms of mental stress. I am not contesting/denying the law, but it breaks my heart that @duttsanjay `s to face this.He has done so much, so selflessly for so many! When I barely knew him, I needed some personal help in a family matter. I just asked, and @duttsanjay went above and beyond duty, to help. HE called ME (remember, I barely knew him then), EVERYDAY till it was sorted. Made things happen. Wish ppl could know how many he`s helped. (sic).”
“Heart Broken: Just heard that Sanjay Dutt has to go to jail for 5 years. I expected mercy! Alas it did not happen (sic),” veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt tweeted.
