Director Rajkumar Santoshi gets bail in 24 hours, was sentenced 2 years imprisonment

Bollywood director Rajkumar Santoshi got bail within 24 hours. On Saturday, Jamnagar Court had sentenced him to two years imprisonment and also imposed a fine of two years. Now a 30-day stay has been imposed on the court order. The director's lawyer Binesh Patel has confirmed the news that the filmmaker has got bail.

For the unversed, Rajkumar Santoshi were once close friends. During that time he had borrowed one crore rupees from Ashoklal. But he



could not return the money on time. Later, to repay the money, Rajkumar Santoshi gave 10 bank cheques of Rs 10 lakh each to Ashok Lal, but in 2016 all the cheques bounced.

Ashoklal tried to connect with Santoshi, but the conversation could not take place. When no help was received, Ashok Lal got upset and filed a case against Rajkumar Santoshi in the Jamnagar court. Since then, this case has been heard 18 times, but Santoshi has not appeared even once.
