India, April 19 -- The 2004 Burail jailbreak by four inmates, including assassins of former Punjab chief minister Beant Singh, by digging a 109-ft tunnel made national headlines. On the night of January 21, 2004, the four undertrials, including Beant Singh assassins Babbar Khalsa International chief Jagtar Singh Hawara, BKI India head Paramjeet Singh Bheora and their accomplice Jagtar Singh Tara, along with their cook Devi Singh, a murder accused, escaped from barrack number 7 by digging a tunnel. Hawara was rearrested in 2005 for his involvement in twin blasts in Delhi, while Bheora was rearrested by Delhi Police in 2006. Tara was caught in Thailand in January 2015, while Devi Singh is believed to be hiding in Pakistan. There were 23 accused in the case, including five jail officials. An accused died during the trial, while three others were declared proclaimed offenders. Two were discharged and one (a Pakistan spy) was convicted in 2009 after he confessed to his crime. He was deported to Pakistan. The remaining 14 accused, who facilitated the escape and harboured the assassins, were acquitted as the prosecution failed to prove the case. The five jail officials acquitted were the then superintendent, DS Rana, the then deputy superintendent, DS Sandhu, assistant superintendent PS Rana, deputy superintendent VM Gill and warder Inder Singh....
