New Delhi, June 26: Rajiv Gandhi’s assassin Nalini Sriharan, who had sought transfer from Vellore prison alleging harassment, has decided to drop the demand, saying conditions had improved in the jail, her counsel said today.
“She said that she will no more seek transfer to another prison as things have improved after Deputy Inspector General of Police Govindarajan conducted an inquiry in the prison,” said P Pugalenthi who met her today.
Nalini, who is serving life imprisonment, had earlier given a three-page complaint and had decided to move the Madras High court, seeking a direction to transfer her from Vellore Prison to Puzhal Central Prison.
“In her three-page complaint to the IG prisons she had alleged that prison manual rules regarding rights of prisoners were being violated by jail authorities inside the prison while dealing with her.
