Jail-break in Bihar

JAMUI, MARCH 12. Eleven hard-core criminals escaped from Bihar's Jamui sub-jail last night after triggering a series of blasts that wounded two prison employees.

The Minister of State for Revenue and Land Reforms, Prayag Choudhry, today said two prison officials were arrested for allegedly conniving with the escapees. The Minister asked the District Magistrate and the Police Superintendent to institute an FIR against the ``guilty'' and initiate action against them.
