VIP treatment of actor Darshan in prison? Allegations of biryani delivery and special privileges emerge

(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) Recent revelations have raised serious questions about the treatment of actor Darshan, currently facing murder charges in Parappa's Agrahara Jail. Darshan is reportedly being given unusual privileges, including gourmet meals and special amenities, raising doubts about the role of the prison authorities.

It seems that Darshan is not only housed in a special cell, Barrack No. 10, but is also reportedly enjoying luxuries like cigarette biryani meals. This situation has triggered a deeper investigation into the role of the prison staff.

A shocking discovery came to light when it was revealed that prison officials might be supporting Darshan's lavish lifestyle. Rumours suggest that this support is being given on the advice of Wilson Garden Naga, a known confidant. The situation worsened when the Central Crime Branch (CCB) conducted a raid on the prison two days ago. Despite the presence of two Assistant Commissioners of Police (ACPs) and the CCB officials, the inspection initially did not reveal any significant findings.

When the CCB officers arrived at around 11:20 am, they found the barracks spotlessly clean. However, their doubts were confirmed when they viewed the video footage, which showed that prison staff had cleaned the barracks shortly before the CCB's visit and removed all incriminating evidence, allegedly under the pretext of garbage collection.

Further investigation revealed that Darshan received biryani and other delicacies daily from various hotels, including the prestigious Shivaji Hotel in Banashankari. These deliveries, allegedly arranged by Wilson Garden Naga, included not only biryani but also kebabs and other non-vegetarian dishes, suggesting a level of comfort that goes far beyond the typical prison food.

According to prison rules, pretrial detainees are not allowed to receive food or materials from outside without court approval. Possession of cigarettes, drugs and alcohol is strictly prohibited in prison. Those found violating these rules face severe punishment. Prison officials are expected to enforce strict regulations to prevent such violations.

Prison guards must ensure that no prisoner escapes or communicates with the outside world. They must maintain discipline within the prison and avoid unnecessary noise, fights and unethical behavior. Cell phones are also banned to prevent unauthorized communication.
