Sanjay Dutt

The Bombay High Court has dismissed the petition that challenged the early release of Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt. Dutt, sentenced in 2013 to five years in jail for illegally holding and destroying a rifle, was lodged in Pune's Yerwada prison and let out early by approximately eight months in February 2016 on account of what the government said was his good conduct. The court on Thursday said it finds no violation of rules in his early release from the jail.
