DHARWAD: A history-sheeter, lodged in the Dharwad jail, made a video call to an accomplice from inside the jail. Some of his associates even recorded the call on another phone and the video was shared by his accomplices on Instagram.
Zameer a.k.a Zammu, who hails from Hubballi, is currently in prison after he assaulted a youth. He made a video call on a smart phone which was later shared on social media.
The incident has given more credence to allegations that jail inmates can get hold of smart phones if they pay money to the jail staff. The Dharwad Satellite Town police, under whose jurisdiction the jail is located, are yet to take up investigation into the issue.
