Prince Tewatia, a gangster

New Delhi – Prince Tewatia, a gangster of the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang, was stabbed to death in the Tihar Jail on 14^th April. Knives were used to attack four other arrested gangsters. He was seriously injured and hospitalised. The CCTV camera recorded this incident. It was led by a gangster named Attaur Rehman alias Atwa. He works as a bully for Rohit Chaudhary and Ravi Gangwal’s gang. As a result of this incident, the jail has now imposed vigilance in case the Bishnoi gang retaliates. The hooligans made knives out of spoons and plates. Such gang wars have taken place in Tihar in the past, and many arrested gangsters have died.

Originally from Loni in Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh, Prince Tewatia was involved in at least 16 serious crimes, including two murders and extortion

Editorial viewpoint

It is shameful for the Police that such incidents occur consistently in India’s maximum security prison ! It is unimaginable how pathetic the prison law and order situation would be when the criminals are behaving in the same manner in the jail as they behave when outside the jail !
