NEW DELHI: A Delhi court has directed the director general (DG) of Tihar Jail to install CCTV cameras inside the offices of senior jail officials to dispel false allegations. The direction came on complaints of one undertrial prisoner Monu alleging that he was severely beaten in the office of a deputy superintendent at Tihar Jail.
Additional sessions judge Sonu Agnihotri said, nowadays, proceedings of courts not only at subordinate level but also of the highest court of the country can be viewed by the general public while sitting in the comfort of their houses, which reflects transparency in functioning of courts around India.
