Sanjay Dutt Goes Back to Jail Furlough Extension is Rejected

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt returned to the Yerwada Jail in Pune on January 10 after the prison authorities rejected the plea for extending his furlough. Mr Dutt had sought an extension of 14 days after exhausting the two weeks granted to him by jail officials. The decision came after the Mumbai police sent its report to the Yerwada prison. Mr Dutt is serving his sentence after being convicted in the 1993 Bombay Blasts Case for illegal possession of weapons.

Mr Dutt bids adieu to his wife Maanyata.

"We are told the city police report was positive. Hence we have no idea as to why it was rejected," Mr Dutt's lawyer Hitesh Jain told NDTV.

Actor Sanjay Dutt was photographed leaving his Mumbai home to return to Pune's Yerawada Jail where he is serving a five-year sentence in connection with the 1993 Bombay blasts. Dressed in striped shirt and jeans, Mr Dutt said goodbye to his wife Maanyata and four-year-old twins Iqra and Shahraan.

Mr Dutt, star of the hit Munna Bhai films, spent Christmas and New Year at home after being granted a two week leave from jail. He applied for an extension of two weeks which has not yet been granted. The actor, who has a role in current box office blockbuster PK, has been given leave on multiple occasions. Last winter, he spent a whole month at home.

The Dutt family looked pensively into the cameras waiting outside their home.

The Maharashtra government has said that it will investigate why the actor goes home from jail so often.

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt put in a starring appearance for his fans soon after he arrived at his home in Mumbai today on a 14-day furlough from Yerwada Prison where he has been serving a jail sentence after being convicted in the Mumbai bomb blast case.

The mustachioed actor looked fit and smart in a white shirt, blue denims and shades, the red tikka on his forehead possibly from a visit to a temple. His look reminded us of his character Bhairon Singh from PK who sports a similar moustache in the film.

Sanjay Dutt merrily obliged his fans with autographs.

And then suddenly the shirt vanished enabling us to have a good look at his chiselled body and the tattoos on his arms.

The actor proudly put his abs on display.
