MUMBAI: Activist Ramesh Gaichor, currently lodged in Taloja jail in connection with the Elgar Parishad case, has alleged in a letter to the Maharashtra State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) that medical negligence has resulted in the death of three jailed inmates in the last few months.

In his letter, dated December 14, Gaichor has urged the SHRC to conduct a detailed inquiry into the death of one of the three inmates, and issue the necessary directives to ensure that adequate medical care is provided to all prisoners in Taloja Jail.

The deceased inmate referenced by Gaichor was Ajit Keru Abhang, 55, lodged in the prison for five years. Abhang, who suffered a fatal heart attack on December 11, did not receive proper medical care from the Chief Medical Officer, alleged Gaichor. This was not an isolated incident, he said, pointing to the deaths of Ramesh Dadaram Sainkhe, 37, and Irfan Nikhar Sheikh, 24.
