Mangalore, Oct 30: Talk of adding insult to injury, and in this case, probably literally. The prison warden of district sub jail who was injured in the clash between the jail inmates, is on the receiving end again.
Instead of punishing the inmates who got into a fight, the authorities have suspended the warden who was thrashed and injured in the clash!
On October 26, two groups in district sub jail had a communal fought over the provision of biriyani. Puttanna, the warden of the jail who tried to intervene and resolve the fight was injured on his hand. He later filed a complaint with the Barke police.
But according to reports, the jail superintendent has issued a notice to suspend Puttanna from duty with immediate effect.
Speaking to daijiworld, a jail official who did not want to be named said that 20 prisoners who created havoc in the jail should have been punished, but surprisingly, an innocent jail warden has been punished instead.
