The Bombay High Court on Tuesday asked the Maharashtra Government to get all accused above 45-years vaccinated right after their arrest, so as to protect them from the Covid-19 virus.
A Division Bench comprising of
Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and
Justice GS Kulkarni was hearing a
suo motu PIL on the sharp surge in COVID-19 cases across Maharashtra prisons. The matter was registered after 198 prison inmates in 47 prisons tested positive as on April 14, 2021.
Persons above 45 years at the time of arrest to be sent for vaccination immediately if not already vaccinated, CJ Datta said.
The Court took several suggestions from the State on the steps that may be taken to prevent further spread of the virus in the prisons.
