The Maharashtra government will conduct a probe into actor Sanjay Dutt‘s being granted two weeks furlough, Minister of State (Home) Ram Shinde confirmed today.
The furlough means that the PK star gets to spend the Christmas holidays at home for the second year in a row. Mr Dutt, who left Yerwada Jail on December 24 for Mumbai, has already spent over 118 days out of jail, either on parole or furlough, between May 2013 and May 2014.
Mr Dutt is serving a five-year sentence after he was convicted last year by the Supreme Court of illegal arms possession in connection with the 1993 Bombay Blasts.
The actor has faced protests outside his home and jail over his parole requests.
He was first granted a 14-day parole in October, which was extended for another 14 days. This was allowed so that he could undergo treatment for leg pain.
