New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party leader Satyendar Jain is in Delhi’s Tihar Jail. As his lawyer tries to prove in the court that the Enforcement Directorate is “harassing” him only because he is a political figure, a video from inside the jail shows the minister enjoying a luxurious life. A video has emerged which shows Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain enjoying a foot massage inside Tihar jail. The CCTV footage captures the minister lying on his bed and reading something from a piece of white paper while a man sitting next to him can be seen massaging his foot. The video is going viral.

It should be noted here that earlier this week, the Superintendent of Delhi’s Tihar Jail – where Mr Jain has been jailed for more than five months – was suspended for alleged VIP treatment to the minister.
According to Tihar jail sources, the video is old. The jail authorities have already taken action against concerned officers and jail staff.
The 58-year-old Delhi minister was arrested on May 30 by the Enforcement Directorate. The probe agency had initiated the money-laundering investigation in the case on the basis of a First Information Report or FIR registered by the CBI on August 24, 2017.
As this video shocks people, the VIP culture inside Delhi’s Tihar Jail remains a common practice. Just recently in November, CCTV footage came out showing conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, who is also inside the jail in a multimillion scam, enjoying luxurious privileges. The video showed him living alone in a big barrack which is generally shared by other inmates.
According to reports, he also had a mobile phone and his cell was covered with bedsheets to not let the cameras record illegal activities.
The video soon led to the transfer of Tihar DGP (Prison) Sandeep Goel for helping Sukesh maintain this lifestyle inside the jail.
