If you were in the same situation (ie: sectarian violence happening right next door and a family to protect), wouldn't you acquire a weapon legally or illegally?
We all know how good the law enforcement in India is and how good acquiring anything 'legally' in India is?
I have the greatest respect for Mr. Kode, he is an honest judge, rarity in India BUT I have to disagree with him on this. Given the circumstances, Sanjay is not guilty.

What license???? Don't write what comes to your mind! Govt. of India has declared that AK-47 is an illegal weapon. No country gives licenses for hand-grandes and most importantly, no one needs an arsenal of bombs and machineguns to protect their families! You kidding me??

Sanjay Dutt stored 25 Hand granades, one AK-47 and a pistol. He had procured it from Anees Ibrahim brother of Dawood Ibrahim. He was also alleged to have links with underworld. Even Prime Minister does not require arsenal of 25 hand granades for security. Former PC of Mumbai A S Samra said he had the knowledge of conspiracy. As a son of a responsible MP he could have informed Police so the lives of hundreds could have been saved. Judge has already shown leniency by not slapping TADA so that he can apply to supreme court. Would any other person with such backgroung and crime have escaped from TADA
