BREAKING NOW: Non-Bailable Warrant Issued Against Sanjay Dutt
The star did not appear before the court in a cheque-bounce case. Producer Shakeel Noorani is fuming, he claims that he received death threats from Dutt
Last year Sanjay
Dutt was a free man when he completed his sentence of three-and-half years in
the 1993 Mumbai blast case but judging by the recent development it only seems
that his problems are far from over.
A Mumbai court
today issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Bollywood superstar Sanjay
Dutt in a cheque bounce case that dates back to the year 2002. The non-bailable
warrant was issued by Andheri court. The said court issued the warrant, as
Sanjay Dutt was not present in any hearing of the court. The case relates to a
cheating case that was filed by film producer Shakeel Noorani against Sanjay
Dutt.
Reportedly, the
case is that of the shooting of one of Noorani's films, for which Sanjay had
apparently charged Rs 50 lakh as fee but did not complete the film. Buzz is,
Dutt turned up for the shoot only for two days.
Before filing the
court case, Shakeel Noorani had approached the doors of Indian Motion Pictures
Producers Association and the verdict went in favour of Noorani when Sanjay was
asked to pay around 2 Cr as compensation to Noorani because of the incomplete
movie. Later, Sanjay Dutt refused to obey the order passed by IMPPA, in the
wake of which Noorani moved the Bombay High Court to get the IMPPA order
executed. The High Court had then ordered attachment of two of Sanjay Dutt’s
properties in Mumbai. Soon after Shakeel Noorani again complained of
getting threatening calls from the underworld. It is said that Sanjay Dutt had
allegedly complained to underworld don Dawood Ibrahim about Shakeel Noorani
over telephone.
Meanwhile a
statement was issued by Sanjay Dutt’s spokesperson. The statement said, “This
case has been going on since a long time and the present situation has arisen
because of the communication lapse between our lawyers and us. We respect the
urgency shown by the honourable court regarding our attendance/representation
and we would take immediate measure to rectify the situation.”
