Destiny’s child Sanjay Dutt has got a brief reprieve from a Terrorism and Disruptive Activities Acts Court today as it extended his bail till January 18^th, 2007. As is well known Sanjay had been found guilty under Arms Act for possession of an AK 56 rifle and a 9 mm pistol in the 1993 Bomb blast case.

He had been granted bail to surrender till December 19^th. He had made an application on December 18^th asking for time to surrender till the case ends or the final verdict is announced. He had cited several reasons why he should be showed leniency. Top most being the arrival of his daughter Trishala on December 23^rd.

Dutt’s lawyers are making all efforts to ensure that the actor gets little or no punishment when the final verdict is announced. Sanjay on his part has been making all the right moves. Getting clicked with underprivileged children or performing hawan at Siddhivinayak Temple, he seems to be determined to put the ghost of 1993 bomb blast case firmly behind him. For now, he must be looking forward to a relaxed new year.
