Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara has ordered a high-level review on Monday after a suspected ISIS terrorist Zohaid Manna and other notorious criminals were found using a mobile phone inside high-security Bengaluru Central Prison, warning that "ruthless measures" would follow if such security breaches persisted.
He said that the government was reassessing ways to prevent such lapses, noting that past suspensions and FIRs had proved inadequate, and warned that "ruthless measures" would be taken if similar incidents continued in the Bengaluru jail.
