Jama’at-e-Islami (JeI) Jammu and Kashmir today alleged that the Central Jail Srinagar had been turned into “interrogation camp” following escape of a prisoner Naveed Jatt alias Abu Hanzallah from SMHS Hospital here where he was brought for a medical check-up.
“The jail authorities have imposed harsh and inhuman restrictions on the jail inmates without any justification and a number of inmates have been shifted from Central Jail Srinagar to the jails outside the valley as a punishment for no fault of theirs.
“The inmates have been deprived of all the facilities which they are entitled to under the jail norms and international human rights pertaining to the prisoners,” the JeI spokesman advocate Zahid Ali, in a statement today, said.
