Jail authorities suspected that the accused of the serial blasts are civil engineers. They allegedly used their utensils to dig the tunnel through which they could escape.
The inmates were given utensils for meals. They started digging the tunnel in the garden near their cells when they were being allowed to work for three hours.
The accused have been kept separate in Barrack No 4. A probe has been ordered to find out whether any security personnel had been involved in the incident.
