I totally disagree with the quantum of punishment handed down to Sanjay Dutt. Granted he was guilty of possessing weapons of banned calibre,but then, he has been in the can for over a year and been subjected to the painful experience of braving inefficiency of the Indian judicial system for over sixteen years, waiting for the trial to conclude.
Besides, his conduct during the 'waiting period' should have been taken into account before handing down the sentence. Doesnt jurisprudence advocate erradication of crime and not the criminal? A suitable community service would have more than adequately served the ends of justice in his case and humbled him for ever.
