Thrissur: Notorious criminal Govindachami, who escaped from Kannur Central Jail on July 25, has been transferred to the high-security Viyyur Central Jail.
He will be kept in solitary confinement in a high-security cell, which prevents communication among inmates.
The jail can accommodate up to 535 dangerous convicts. The 700-meter perimeter wall and high-level surveillance make it one of the most secure prisons in Kerala.
Following his escape, four jail officials have been suspended, and the jail’s malfunctioning electric fencing and CCTV systems are under scrutiny.
