Mobile phone found outside Hardik Patel’s cell in prison

According to jail authorities, the jailer on duty on last evening, during a regular search, found a mobile phone lying outside Hardik’s barrack. Upon further search, another hand set, a mobile battery and two chargers were found from
another spot in the jail premises.

Subsequently, an FIR was lodged at Sachin Police Station by duty jailer D P Rabari under IPC section 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) and relevant sections of Prison Act for receiving, bringing prohibited articles in prison cells.

Deputy Superintendent of Police V D Patil said an investigation into the matter is on.

“An FIR has been lodged in this matter. Since one phone was found outside the barrack where Hardik is lodged
alone, we infer that the phone was used by him only,” Patil said.
