ON SANJAY DUTT: If Balasaheb wasn't there, nobody's grandfather could bailed out Sanjay. He told Manohar Joshi: "Sunil Dutt may be my rival, but not a traitor. Let Sanjay out, but if you find a shred of evidence against hang him." Officers working on the case said if they did so, they would have let out several others who had been rounded up on flimsy charges, and the ernment would stand exposed. It was then that he told me, "Mukesh, you low up on Sanjay's release." For four months, he did not let me go to working me constantly about the progress in the case. Every day, I'd would about four hours liaising with the government, meeting legal advisers, cates, and getting paperwork done. I've seen the case inside out.
