barrack number 10 was earlier assigned to gangster Mustafa Dossa and an accused arrested in the Adarsh scam. “Barrack 10, 11 and 12 are high-security barracks and are located away from the other cells,” said a police officer, on condition of anonymity.
None of the family members who escorted Dutt to the TADA court were seen accompanying him to the jail.
Dutt wont be in Arthur Road jail for long. “We have deployed heavy security outside and inside the jail, and all senior police officers are present. Dutt is likely to be shifted to a central jail early in the morning,” said the source.
