Days after footage of Delhi minister Satyendar Jain receiving an oil massage inside his jail cell triggered an uproar, a new video has emerged showing the minister having food inside his prison cell in the Tihar Jail.

Earlier, it was reported that Jain had lost about 6 kg as he was keeping a fast and only ate fruits. However, Tihar Jail sources said that the Delhi minister gained 8 kg weight during his time in jail, contrary to his lawyer’s claims of him having lost 28 kgs.

The new footage surfaced a day after Jain on Tuesday submitted before the trial court that he has not been getting privileges like proper food and medical check-up in Tihar Jail. He had also claimed that he lost 28 kg while being locked up in jail.

But the new video, which has gone viral on social media, shows the AAP leader eat various packaged food items from.

Meanwhile, questions are being raised at Tihar authorities of how packaged food from outside was being allowed to serve inside the hail premises.

Sharing the video on his twitter handle BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla said “One more video from media! After taking maalish from rapist & calling him PHYSIO therapist, Satyendra Jain can be seen enjoying sumptuous meal! Attendants serve him food as if he is in a resort on vacation!”
“Kejriwal ji ensured that hawalabaaz gets VVIP maza not saza!,” Poonawalla said.

In an accompanying video on his Twitter account, Poonawalla said after,” He is being served outside food by two attendants as if he is in a resort or a restaurant and there is a variety of delicacies and dishes in front him, as if he is not there for the saza (punishment) of corruption, but maza (fun) of maalish (massage)and restaurant food.”

“Arvind Kejriwal must answer why the person who has been in jail for the last five months is being given this facility by keeping him in the minister post — to take ‘vasooli’ from Sukesh, maalish from a rapist and now food from outside jail,” Shehzad said.

In the latest purported footage from Tihar jail, Jain is seen having food including fruits and dry fruits.

Earlier, Jain had moved a court accusing agencies acting on the behest of the Centre and leaking his videos.

Wednesday’s development comes just days after another CCTV footage clip showed the Delhi Minister receiving a massage inside his jail cell, which led to widespread outrage and backfire.

Jain was arrested on May 30 under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.

He was in de-facto control of shell companies used for alleged money laundering, and the co-accused persons Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain were just dummies.

The ED initiated a money laundering investigation on the basis of the CBI’s FIR lodged against various suspects including Udai Shanker Awasthi, MD IFFCO; Pankaj Jain, Promoter of Jyoti Trading Corporation and Rare Earth Group, Dubai; Amarendra Dhari Singh and others.

They were accused by the CBI for allegedly hatching criminal conspiracy, cheating and criminal misconduct.
