Earlier four men were arrested on production warrant for inquiry in connection with the murder of a Pakistani prisoner who was allegedly killed in Jaipur Central jail on February 20 by other inmates after a fight over television volume.
They are being interrogated at Lal kothi police station.
Shakrullah was serving a life term.
Jaipur Additional Commissioner Laxman Gaur had said: “Around four prisoners, including the Pakistani inmate, were watching TV when a brawl broke out among them over volume. As the fight escalated, the three convicts bashed Shakrullah's head against a stone.”
According to police, Shakrullah, who hails from Sialkot district of Pakistan, was arrested in 2011 under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. In 2017, he was sentenced to life imprisonment.
A day after his death, the National Human Rights Commission had issued a notice to the government of Rajasthan. It had also asked all states and Union Territories to take precautionary measures in jails where Pakistani nationals are lodged.
