AIADMK chief VK Sasikala is reportedly getting VIP treatment in the Bengaluru jail, including a special kitchen for her meals.
After being convicted by the Supreme Court in a disproportionate assets case, Sasikala has been lodged in the Parappana Agrahara Central jail.
However, the AIADMK chief is getting special facilities, including an exclusive kitchen to cook food for her, in complete violation of jail rules, says a report by DIG Roopa D Moudgil.
The report says that Sasikala paid Rs 2 crore to jail officials to get special treatment, adding that Karnataka Director General of Prisons (DGP) Satyanarayana Rao could be one of the top officials who were paid money.
DIG Roopa sent her findings to highlight multiple violations in the central jail to her boss, according to an NDTV report.
