“It ill befits a retired Judge of the SC and Chairman of PCI, to display such unseemly haste in seeking complete exoneration for Dutt in the 1993 bomb blast case.
“Hardly has the ink dried on the Supreme Court's judgement upholding the actor's conviction under the Arms Act that the ex-Judge has lamented the decision, extolled Sanjay Dutt's virtues and regretted his suffering of the last twenty years,” he said.
Jethmalani expressed surprise that both Kumar and Tewary have endorsed Justice Katju's view that the Governor has the power to pardon Dutt for the offences for which he has been convicted.
