Kolkata, April 15 An inmate who went missing from Dum Dum jail on Monday evening was spotted hiding inside a drain located in the jail premises on Tuesday morning.

Nassem Ali Mollah was nabbed around 2 am after jail officers noticed some movement inside the high drain located near the gate of the jail. A thorough search revealed that the inmate was hiding there.

“After apprehending him, Mollah told us that he was feeling homesick. Yesterday, while other inmates of the jail were walking back to their respective jail wards, he slipped into the high drain and stayed for the night there.
