A worried Jharkhand police has alerted the jail administration about the security threats that Lalu is facing owing to the comfortable life that he has been allowed inside the jail.
"Lalu Prasad may face a security threat, and should be given adequate security in the jail," an official of the special branch said, expressing concern.
Lalu Prasad has been kept in the upper division of the jail, where he is separated from other prisoners. He has also been provided all facilities extended to VIP prisoners — a separate bedroom, a mosquito net, cot and other facilities. There is also a TV set in the cell, and he is allowed to watch Doordarsan news and read newspapers every day.
