A special court on Friday directed the prosecution to file a reply on Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt's application for a special report on his good conduct and character on Feb 28, Sahara Samay sources said.
Sanjay, convicted for illegal possession of arms during 1993 Mumbai blasts, is seeking leniency in sentence.
The special Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) court accepted a formal application from the film actor who is seeking leniency under the Probation of Offenders Act (POA).
Special TADA judge Pramod Kode directed the prosecution to file a reply on a plea moved by the actor's counsel Satish Manshinde to call for a probation officer's (PO) report while considering Dutt's application for probation.
The Probation of Offenders Act (POA) allows the court to release a person guilty of lesser offence if satisfied that his conduct has been good and he has reformed.
Dutt, who faces a jail term of 10 years for possession of illegal weapons, has sought to be let off on probation instead of serving a jail term for his conviction under the stringent Arms Act in the 1993 serial bombings case.
