Tobacco, the cause of fights
Raju (name changed), a 19-year-old boy, was acquitted in a murder case two months ago. “Boys inside the jail fight mostly because of tobacco. They all want to smoke and chew tobacco, and for this they can do anything. They can smuggle it inside by hiding in their stomach or other body cavities, or can fight with someone if they don’t get it,” he said.
He said that most of the fights in jail happen because of tobacco.
“Inmates have told the jail authorities many times to make tobacco available inside the jail to stop crime. They also said that if they just got tobacco, none of the drugs like heroine, cocaine and hash would be smuggled inside. But the authorities never agree to this because they are making a lot of money by smuggling tobacco to prisoners.”
