A Hyderabad court sentenced former Bollywood actor Monica Bedi to five years in jail on Friday for passport forgery and cheating in a high-profile case involving an underworld leader. Bedi was extradited from Portugal along with Mumbai underworld figure Abu Salem in November last year. Salem is accused of involvement in the Mumbai bomb blasts in 1993 where 257 people were killed and is currently in a high-security jail in Mumbai facing trial over the attacks.
