Jailed AAP minister Satyendar Jain gets massage inside Tihar, video goes viral

New Delhi, November 19: Just two days after BJP demanded to shift Delhi minister Satyendar Jain from Tihar jail, a CCTV video of the minister getting a full body massage in Jail has gone viral on social media.

The AAP minister was arrested on May 30 by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on allegations of money laundering. In the alleged CCTV footage dated September 13, the minister could be seen lying on his bed and reading some papers while a man sitting next to him is seen massaging his foot.

In another video, shared by BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla on his official Twitter handle, a man is seen massaging the Delhi minister's legs and back before proceeding to give him a full head massage.

"So instead of Sazaa - Satyendar Jain was getting full VVIP Mazaa? Massage inside Tihar Jail? Hawalabaaz who hasn't got bail for 5 months get a head massage! Violation of rules in a jail run by AAP Govt," Poonawalla wrote along with a video.

"This is how official position abused for Vasooli and massage thanks to Kejriwal," he further said.

The videos went viral on social media on Saturday, about ten days after the ED accused Delhi minister Jain, who was arrested in a money laundering case, of receiving special treatment inside Tihar jail.

"Unknown persons were giving massages and foot massages to Mr Jain, even beyond curfew hours. He was given special food," the ED had said in a court.

Soon after, Ajit Kumar, the Superintendent of Delhi's Tihar jail, was suspended for allegedly providing VIP treatment to a jailed Delhi minister.

Jain was arrested and has been in jail since June in connection with a money laundering case, and his bail application was also denied on Thursday by a Delhi court.
