The Supreme Court in India has given Sanjay Dutt four more weeks to surrender before returning to jail.

Last month, the actor was convicted for illegally possessing weapons in a case linked to the 1993 blasts in Mumbai. He was expected to return to jail this week. The judges said their decision was on “humanitarian grounds”.

According to a report on NDTV, his lawyers had said he would like to complete filming of movies in which over a hundred crores have been invested.

The Supreme Court last month sentenced Mr Dutt to five years for possessing firearms supplied by men who executed the string of bombings in 1993 that killed 257 people in Mumbai.
