KOLKATA: In a desperate attempt to escape, a prisoner, arrested under Arms Act , smeared feces all over his body and ran out of a prison in Kolkata.

He then challenged other inmates to touch him and began tossing feces in the prison.

The inmates were crying for help, following which police officers called sweepers to clean Jabbir. The cops asked Jabbir to sit in one corner of the cell. Taking opportunity, Jabbir ran out of the cell. Police tried to chase him but were unsuccessful as Park Circus area is very crowded.
