By Puri
Sanjay
Dutt,
who
was
convicted
under
the
Arms
Act
for
illegally
possessing
weapons,
had
been
awarded
six
years
imprisonment
by
the
TADA
[Terrorists
and
Disruptive
Activities
(Prevention)
Act]
court.
However,
the
apex
court
reduced
the
sentence
from
six
years
to
five
years.
This
effectively
means
that
Dutt
will
be
in
jail
for
three
years
and
six
months
as
he
has
already
undergone
18
months
imprisonment.
"I
know
in
my
heart
that
I
have
always
been
a
good
human
being,
respected
the
system
and
always
been
loyal
to
my
country.
My
family
is
very
emotional
right
now
and
I
have
to
be
strong
for
them.
I
am
shattered
and
in
emotional
distress.
I
am
sorry
I
can't
come
down
and
meet
you
all.
God
is
great
and
he
will
guide
me
through
this," Sanjay
Dutt
said.
The
apex
court
Thursday
upheld
Sanjay's
conviction
under
the
Arms
Act
in
the
terror
attack
for
illegal
possession
of
a
9
mm
pistol
and
an
AK-56
rifle.
The
Supreme
Court
also
upheld
the
death
sentence
of
Yakub
Abdul
Razak
Memon
in
the
1993
Mumbai
blasts
case
and
commuted
the
death
sentence
of
10
others
in
relation
with
the
blasts,
in
which
a
series
of
13
car
bomb
blasts
ripped
across
Mumbai.
Sanjay
is
currently
married
to
Manyata,
with
whom
he
entered
wedlock
in
2008.
She
is
his
third
wife.
The
actor
has
two
children
with
Manyata
-
twins
Shahraan
and
Iqra
-
and
elder
daughter
Trishala
from
his
first
wife
Richa
Sharma.
Several
actors
and
filmmakers
from
the
Hindi
movie
industry
came
out
on
social
networking
sites
to
share
how
"good-hearted"
the
53-year-old,
Bollywood's
much-loved
"Munna
Bhai"
really
is.
Sanjay,
the
son
of
Bollywood
legends
Nargis
and
Sunil
Dutt,
has
films
like
the
Zanjeer
remake,
Policegiri,
Munna
