Sanjay Dutt to get his passport back

Actor Sanjay Dutt’s application for return of his passport was on Tuesday allowed by special TADA court here. Dutt was released from prison last month, after serving his sentence in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts case. “The court has allowed his application,” said his lawyer Subash Jadhav.

Dutt had moved the court of special TADA judge GA Sanap in this regard last week. The CBI told the court it has no objection to his plea. The actor was arrested on April 19, 1993, for possession and destruction of an AK-56 rifle, which was part of cache of arms and explosives which landed in India prior to the serial blasts of March 1993.
