A person, has claimed that he was beaten by inmates inside the high security Tihar jail after he appealed to the PM for relief.
A person, picked up on charges of being a terrorist but cleared by the CBI, has claimed that he was beaten by inmates inside the high security Tihar jail, an incident which took places barely two days after he sought intervention of prime minister Manmohan Singh for relief.
In an application filed in the court of additional sessions judge S K Gautam, Irshad Ali sought his medical examination as he was "thrashed" inside the Tihar jail here by two inmates identified as Ashok and Sonu.
He also demanded an inquiry into the matter to find out as who was behind the attack on him which occured in jail number three between 1800 and 1815 hours yesterday.
The incident which he believes may have been recorded in Close-Circuit TV cameras in the high-security prison should be preserved for the inquiry purpose and there should be proper arrangement for his security, Ali said in the application.
Taking note of his application, the court asked the jail superintendent to file its report on Monday.
Incidently Ali, labelled as a terrrorist by Delhi Police's Special cell, had requested the prime minister to take necessary steps as the police, accused by the CBI of falsely implicating him, was allegedly threatening him inside the Tihar prison to withdraw the case.
In his three-page letter written in Urdu, Ali, who remains in custody despite getting a clean chit from CBI on November 11 last year, alleged that officials of the Special Cell were sending messages warning him of dire consequences if the case was not withdrawn.
Ali along with another person Mohammed Moarif Qamar were arrested by the Delhi Police with the help of an Intelligence Bureau official. However, in a strongly-worded report, the CBI said nothing adverse had been found against them and recommended action against at least three officials of Delhi Police -- Vinay Tyagi, Ravinder Tyagi and Subash Vats for implicating them wrongly.
In an emotional plea to the prime minister, Ali said "Nainsafi hi dehshatgardhi ko janam deti hai (injustice gives birth to terrorism)."
Ali said in his letter that he had worked as an informer with the Special Cell and Intelligence Bureau for five years.
"However, I ran out of my luck when I sought remuneration for my work. I was picked up and labelled as a terrorist...my three children are not able to go to school. My old father and wife are suffering immensely," Ali said.
The CBI, in its closure report, alleged that the three officials of the anti-terror cell of Delhi Police "operation" be booked for lying under oath and creating false evidence, among other serious offences.
