Relatives of inmates living at Banke Prison staged demonstrations in front of the District Administration Office on Sunday demanding relocation of prisoners kept in earthquake-damaged building.
“Prisoners who could be granted amnesty should be released following the due process while others should be shifted to a safer place,” said Mahesh Singh, son of Bhagat Singh who is facing jail terms for his involvement in violent political movement. “Who will be responsible if the jail collapses and something nasty happens to the inmates?” he questioned.
