Actor
Sanjay Dutt will leave for Pune shortly as the DIG prison has rejected his plea for extension of furlough. The order seen here says Dutt can avail of medical attention, if needed, in prison too. It said, hence, "as assured by you in your letter on January 8, 2015, return to the prison immediately".
