A day after a prisoner of Ambala Central Jail, who was brought to Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in Chandigarh for treatment, escaped from police custody, he was arrested on Friday.
The jail inmate, Gagandeep Singh, a resident of Ambala’s Jatwar village, was arrested near Shambhu village of Patiala district by the CIA staff of Shahzadpur police.
The accused had allegedly ingested glass pieces in jail, where he was confined in a case of causing hurt and damage to public property from November 18.
