Slaman is Khaidi No. 106, Jodhpur Central Jail

Salman Khan, the high profile Bollywood star convicted in blackbuck poaching case has become khaidi No. 106 in Jodhpur central Jail. He is neighbour to another celebrity,  rape-accused,  godman Asaram Bapu. A wall separates  the two.

Senior officers of the Jodhpur jail told that Khan would be kept isolated from other prisoners, with extra security at his new address at Ward No. 2 of the jail.

“He has been housed alone in a 10×10 room in Ward No. 2,” said DIG (jail) Vikram Singh, who is also the jail superintendent, over the phone from Jodhpur. “We asked him if he was feeling low or depressed and whether he needed any medicines. But he responded in the negative.

He said he was fine. ‘I have been inside this jail before,’ he said reassuringly. Later, he requested us to allow his night dress, toothbrush, undergarments inside the jail,” Singh said.
