It is said he was attacked by Bombay Faizal, Nasir Altaf and Mohammad. Though the court had ordered shifting of Bombay Faizal to the Bengaluru prison about a month back, the order had not been executed.

The CCTV in the jail premises has recorded the attack incident. Barke police are investigating the case.
