NASHIK: The Nashik Road police have lodged an FIR against eight officials and employees of the Nashik Road Central Prison for offences punishable under attempt to murder and causing grievous hurt.
The police took the action based on an order from the Nashik district and sessions court. A statement issued by the police said the case was based on a complaint by the wife of Vencil Miranda, a convict serving life imprisonment.
