Mullah walked out of the jail after his bail application was accepted by Thane sessions court on Monday over a bond of Rs1 lakh. To celebrate Mullah's release, Awhad reached Thane jail at around 4.15pm.

However, as the jail authorities took some time for releasing Mullah, Awhad decided to go inside the jail and receive him. He spent around 45 minutes inside the jail premises before they walked out from the back gate.
