The inquiry had prima facie found that negligence on part of these five persons had led to the situation in the prison which left two dead and more than 12 injured.

The department had transferred 16 notorious undertrials from the district jail here a couple of days back to five different central prisons as part of crackdown of following the murder of two undertrials - aides of Chhota Shakeel.
