1983 verdict gets bail

I really do not have any reason why I have not penned down since a year. Would like to apologize to all my readers for it though and will definately try to be better this time.
One thing has been boggling my mind. "1983 verdict may help Sanjay Dutt get bail" I read this article again yesterday. I don't know since now many days it is going on. Since the whole era about Sanjay Dutt's case is being going on. With this case starting many questions starting emerging in my mind as the things started to progress.
  • Is this not a simple case of a person violating law?
  • Isn't the law the same for a beggar and also for the king?
  • Why are people supporting a crime?


What I personally have failed to understand is the answer to this last question. I can somehow come to terms with the first two questions, with only the fact that there can never be a perfect system and people will always find way about it. But the last question I can never understand. Has human mind too started deceiving itself?

It is such a preposterous thing a largest democracy and people of that country are standing outside the prison and chanting slogans to free the verdict. Come on guys have failed to understand that he is just a prisoner in front of the law who has committed a crime and he needs to get punished for it. I really do not know if this continues then we would find influential people dominating and the sole purpose of democracy getting violated.
