MUMBAI: Actor Sanjay Dutt was on Thursday shifted from the Arthur Road Jail here to Yerwada Jail near Pune after he withdrew his application to be kept in a prison in this city.

Dutt, given a six-year jail term in the 1993 blasts case on Tuesday, withdrew his plea in the special TADA court of Judge P D Kode after authorities submitted a report that cited several reasons why he could not be kept at Arthur Road Jail, which is meant only for persons facing trial.

The star, who was taken to a barrack in Arthur Road Jail after his sentencing, was clad in a white shirt and blue jeans when he was escorted by policemen from here to Yerwada Jail in the evening.
