Mandya: Mandya Jail Superintendent Satish, accused in abetting a crime by providing a cell-phone and other items to an inmate in jail, has been suspended. One Shiva was sentenced to imprisonment in the jail for allegedly involved in murdering an entrepreneur H.P. Nagendra. Satish was said to have helped Shiva by illegally providing him a cellphone, using which Shiva had reportedly plotted to kill one Kumar through a woman rowdy-sheeter Bhagya.
