MUMBAI — Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt has been allowed to leave prison for a month because his daughter is going through a nose surgery. He is expected to leave Pune's Yerawada Jail on Thursday morning, NDTV reported. His frequent breaks from jail have been criticized in the past as evidence of VIP treatment. The last time the actor was given leave from jail was in December 2014. An extension he applied for then was rejected. Between May 2013 and 2014, Dutt spent over 118 days out of prison. Dutt, 56, was found guilty in 2013 of acquiring illegal weapons from those involved in the deadly 1993 attacks in Mumbai in which 257 people were killed and hundreds injured. He was sentenced to six years in jail in 2007; he served 18 months but then was out on bail, fighting the conviction until a court in March 2013 ordered him back to jail in Pune. — Agencies
