Hector Xavier Monsegur who is better known as Sabu of the LulzSec hacking group has escaped sentencing yet again. Â This is the fifth time the court has adjourned the sentencing of the member of the LulzSec group. Â

Â It will be interesting to see when the authorities actually demand the sentence for Sabu and the extent of the prison term he gets.
