Sanjay Dutt targeted the UK government over visa rejection

Ajay Devgan and Sanjay Dutt were going to be seen in the sequel of the 2012 comedy film Son of Sardar. But now the actor has dropped out of this film due to the rejection of his UK visa. Now Sanjay Dutt has finally reacted to the rejection of his UK visa application due to his past criminal record.

Sanjay Dutt reacts to UK visa application being rejected

Let us tell you that Ravi Kishan was cast in Son of Sardaar 2 in place of Sanjay Dutt because he could not go to Scotland for shooting due to visa rejection. Sanjay Dutt said that the UK government did not do the right thing and called himself a law-abiding citizen. He said, "I know one thing that the UK government did not do the right thing. They gave me the visa initially. All the payments were made in the UK. Everything was ready. Then after a month, you are cancelling my visa! I gave you all the papers and everything required by the UK government. Why did you give me the visa in the first place? You should not have given me the visa. How did it take you a month to understand the laws?"

Sanjay Dutt appealed to the UK government

With this, Sanjay Dutt further said that he respects the law of every country and urged the UK government to 'rectify' it. He also said that he has no regrets about not being a part of this project. He said, "Who is going to the UK anyway? There are a lot of riots happening there. Even the Indian government has issued a statement that you should not go to the UK. So I am not missing anything. But yes, they have done wrong. They need to correct it. I am a law-abiding citizen. I follow the law and I respect the law of every country". 

Sanjay Dutt was arrested in 1993

According to the information received, Sanjay has applied for UK visa several times since his arrest in 1993, but he never got a visa. In April 1993, Sanjay was arrested under TADA and Arms Act and later convicted of violating the Arms Act for possessing illegal weapons purchased from other accused in the 1993 Bombay bomb blasts. He was sentenced to five years in jail. In March 2013, the Supreme Court upheld his five-year sentence and after getting bail several times, he finally completed his jail term in 2016.
