They are accused of making threat calls to scrap dealer from jail
Despite raids, the use of mobile phones within Central Prison, Parappana Agrahara, continues. Barely a week after a convict was caught using a mobile phone in his barrack last Sunday, another case has now caught the attention of the police.
A 33-year-old scrap dealer from Gurappanapalya lodged a complaint with the police after he started getting threat calls from two accused, presently lodged inside the prison.
In his statement, the dealer said that the accused was demanding that he pay them protection money.
