Key Questions Answered
Prisons Department DGP Alok Kumar ordered Prajwal Revanna's transfer after CCB police raided his cell at Parappana Agrahara Jail and discovered a mobile phone, SIM card, and pendrive. Investigations alleged he paid 1 lakh rupees for the mobile and 50 thousand rupees for the SIM card.
A temporary stay was placed on the transfer order due to security reasons, as Somashekhar, the former DIG of the North Range of the Prisons Department, is currently jailed in connection with a fake Supreme Court order case.
Prajwal Revanna's lawyers are preparing to challenge the convict's transfer order in court, with plans to file a petition if the transfer order moves forward.
