Mumbai: Six months after 32-year-old convict Asghar Ali Mansoori died by suicide inside the Nashik central prison, alleging persistent torture at the hands of prison officials, another prisoner has attempted to take his own life in the same jail. Thirty-year-old Avinash Jadhav was, however, rushed to the Nashik civil hospital and his life was saved. Jadhav too has accused the jail officials of harassing him for close to a decade. He claims that more recently, he was targeted for deposing against the officials and supporting Mansooriâs allegations of torture.

THE BOMBAY High Court on Thursday ordered for “proper protection” to be given to witnesses in the case of a 32-year-old convict’s death at Nashik central jail in October.
