NEW DELHI: Indian film actor Sanjay Dutt was released from jail after serving imprisonment for three-and-a-half-year, India media reported.
The Indian Express reported that Sanjay had been awarded five years of imprisonment by a special court, and confirmed by Supreme Court in 2013 in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts.
Sanjay Dutt, 56, walked free from Pune’s Yerawada jail on Thursday morning.
Actor’s full sentence period would have ended in November this year, but after being granted remission of seven days per month, his date of release was set around February end.
The remission was granted to him based on his behaviour in jail and the good work that he has done.
In 2007-08, Dutt had served 18 months in jail.
