Goa authorities have kept the marriage proceedings of Sanjay Dutt and Manyata on hold after Margao division administrative officer suspended the residence certificate issued to Manyata. “All the marriage registration proceedings are kept in abeyance pending orders,” Sub Registrar, Chandrakant Pissurlekar, who had accepted the declaration of marriage said on Saturday.
Pissurlekar said that they will not allow the final signature on the marriage, which has to be done within 90 days, till the Mamlatdar clears the residence certificate. Manyata had attached a residence certificate of a local panchayat, recommended by a talathi in South Goa Collectorate.
Meanwhile, the Bandra Metropolitan Magistrate directed the police to investigate claims by Mehraj Sheikh that Manyata was actually married to him and they had not been divorced yet. Sheikh, a struggling writer, claims he married Manyata on April 5, 2003.
