Click to play videoMumbai: Actor Sanjay Dutt will spend a second consecutive night in jail though the Supreme Court granted him interim bail on Monday.
Papers related to the Supreme Court’s order have still not reached the Yerawada jail in Pune where Dutt is serving a six-year prison sentence for illegally receiving guns from gangsters involved in the 1993 Mumbai bombings.
A special TADA court in Mumbai, which sentenced Dutt, is yet to hand over bail papers to his lawyers. Dutt’s lawyers visited the TADA court on Monday too but didn’t get the papers.
The Supreme Court usually sends telegraphic messages to the concerned court as well as the jail authorities but because of widespread forgery the lower courts prefer certified copies. Dutt was granted bail on the condition that he would not leave the country and report to the CBI every week.
The bail is valid till the TADA court gives a copy of its judgment to Dutt. Judge P D Kode is expected to give a copy by August 27.
Dutt, it has been said, is eagerly looking to be a free man again following the Supreme Court ruling granting him interim bail.
