Minutes after he was sentenced to two years in jail in a 2003 human trafficking case by a court in Patiala, Punjabi pop singer Daler Mehndi has been granted bail, according to news agency ANI. The 50-year-old singer was convicted earlier today and immediately taken into custody by the Punjab Police.
Daler Mehndi, and his brother, Shamsher Singh, had been accused of illegally sending people abroad disguised as members of his troupe by charging hefty "passage money." He had allegedly "dropped off" three girls at San Francisco.

This is shocking!
