What happened: The Senior Superintendent Central Prison, Hassan Sahito, disclosed that the influential prisoners were allowed to visit their homes during the trial time period. The News quoted the development as “This comes days after a suspect in Dua Mangi kidnapping case escaped from police custody while several other inmates were found staying at private hospitals.”
Details: Subsequently, a letter to DIG prisons highlighted that court police allegedly facilitated the prisoners brought to courts for hearing to use private cars and other facilities. Another publication quotes the Superintendent Central Prison, Hassan Sahito, “After the hearings, the prisoners are taken to their homes rather than being brought directly to the jail.” Not just prisoners, but high-profile suspects in NAB cases were given special privileges and facilities, revealed Hassan.
More: Furthermore, he urged the higher-ups to ensure the traveling of prisoners in jail vans in relatively private cars in order to ensure that any protocol is breached.
