Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt, who is in prison for arms possession, fails his final appeal on Tuesday against a decision by the Supreme Court to defend his conviction. Dutt, 53, surrendered in May to serve the remaining three and-a-half years of a five-year term in a case connected to the deadly 1993 Mumbai bombings subsequent the Supreme Court approved his conviction. Furthermore, a senior court official who couldn’t be named told AFP, that the petition has been rejected adding the actor had now exhausted the petition process against his conviction. Dutt has filed a so-called curative petition arguing there were legal errors in the Supreme Court's March ruling defending his conviction.
