SC grants bail to Dutt

After spending over a month at Pune's Yerwada jail, actor Sanjay Dutt has finally been granted bail by the Supreme Court, reports CNBC-TV18.

But it will take at least two days for the actor to walk out of jail. Dutt had been sentenced to six years, after being convicted in the 1993 Mumbai blasts case.

Considerations for his bail were related to the Arms Act, and were totally unrelated to the bomb blast case. The court also took into account the fact that Dutt had served 18 months in prison.
