Five undertrials attack jail warder, booked for murder attempt
All are undertrial prisoners lodged in the Bengaluru Central Prison in connection with a 2025 Mangaluru murder case.
Five undertrial prisoners have been charged with attempting to murder a jail warder at the Parappana Agrahara Central Prison in Bengaluru. The accused - Mohammad Muzamil, Abdul Shafwan, Mohammad Rizwan, Niyaz, and Kalandar Shafi - all face allegations related to a 2025 murder case in Mangaluru. The dispute arose over prison security rules, with the warder, Manjunatha Haveli, stopping additional items from being brought into the prison.
The altercation escalated, involving the other prisoners and resulting in Haveli suffering injuries. The incident occurred on September 2, 2023, and the prisoners' actions have led to their arrest and booking under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023.
