He has reportedly been given a year-long sentence.

In 2007, a fire at the cinema left 59 people dead. Most of them choked to death after being trapped in the  balcony.  Basic fire safety rules had been broken - exit routes had been blocked to add more seats.

The cinema was owned by Gopal and Sushil Ansal
