Jail Jalsa Exposed: Inmates Caught Partying Inside Bengaluru Prison | Govt Orders Probe

A shocking India Today investigation has uncovered videos from Bengaluru Central Jail, showing inmates drinking, dancing, and singing to “Party All Night” inside prison walls. The footage exposes massive security lapses, with hardened criminals like ISIS recruiter Juhad Shakeel and serial rapist Umesh Reddy found using smartphones, TV sets, and other gadgets in their cells. The expose has triggered a political storm — the Karnataka BJP held protests accusing the Siddaramaiah government of providing “VVIP treatment” to convicts. Following the outrage, Home Minister G. Parameshwara has sacked top jail officials and ordered a high-level IPS probe. The incident raises serious questions about the state’s prison management and political accountability.
