A shocking video from Bengaluru’s Parappana Agrahara Central Jail has gone viral, showing a prisoner, reportedly an ISIS terrorist and rapist, using a mobile phone and watching television.

After a video goes viral, Karnataka Home Minister G Parmeshwara said that the Karnataka Govenment has suspended the officers and took action aginst them.
“In the past too, when such incidents occurred, we suspended officers and took action. Even earlier in Parappana Agrahara jail, we had suspended those found guilty and taken measures. We have appointed B. Dayanand as the head. He was on leave yesterday, but I have spoken to him. I have asked him to investigate and submit a report. Such things cannot be tolerated,” Parmeshwara said in conversation with ANI.
Citing the multiple reports of prisoners using phones in Jail, He said, “No one — whether a terrorist or anyone else — should have access to a phone. I have sought reports on why such incidents keep happening repeatedly in Bengaluru, Belagavi, and Mangaluru. I’m not sure whether the video circulating is old, but an investigation must be conducted.”
The Home Minister further informed that he has called for a report, and if it fails to satisfy then the seprate investigation will be conduct.
