As per jail authorities,“Dutt is expected to be sent to Yerawada. We have all facilities there to lodge high-profile convicts and it is considered to be safe.However, the Maharashtra prisons department will make a final call on this in the next four to five days. If Dutt is lodged in Yerawada prison, he is expected to be housed in a separate cell with tight security.
Eminent criminal lawyer Majid Memon said,“He has no option but to surrender on the appointed day, get in (jail), and then seek relief of remission, which I hope he may get.”

Jail authorities say actor will be treated like any other inmate.
