Father arrested for unknowingly smuggling drugs into Mandya prison

Father Arrested For Unknowingly Smuggling Marijuana Into Mandya Prison

Mandya district police arrested Shivanna, a villager from Halaguru, for attempting to smuggle drugs into the district prison. Shivanna’s son, Madhusudhan, who is imprisoned, reportedly instructed his father to deliver clothes and collect a bag from a friend en route.

Unaware of its contents, Shivanna handed over the bag during his visit. During inspection, prison staff allegedly found marijuana concealed inside. Shivanna, shocked by the discovery, claimed ignorance of the contraband.

Police investigations revealed that the drugs were placed in the bag by Madhusudhan’s friend without Shivanna’s knowledge. Following the incident, the district prison superintendent, Lokesh, filed a formal complaint. Shivanna has been remanded to judicial custody, and a body warrant has been issued against Madhusudhan.
