Annual Report 2009-2010 4.192 The report received from the jail authorities confirmed the alleged incident of a female prisoner being pregnant while in judicial custody. The Commission was also informed that on the request of the female prisoner, the pregnancy was medically terminated at D.D.U. Hospital of Delhi on 26 May 2009. Further, fearing the stigma and other repercussions, the victim refused to divulge the details of the incident to the jail authorities. 4.193 The Commission a�er considering the report observed that although the victim did not make any complaint against any person or official of the jail and also refused to divulge the name of the person, it was clear from the report that the victim became pregnant while in judicial custody. It clearly showed a lapse on the part of the jail administration. 4.194 Pursuant to the Commission’s order dated 13 November 2009, a spot inquiry of the victim was conducted in camera by the NHRC’s Investigation team. 4.195 The team from the Investigation Division of the Commission too failed to establish the identity of the person who caused the pregnancy and concluded that there was no evidence to suggest any forced physical relationship with her nor there existed any other form of sexual exploitation in Tihar Jail. The team, however, pointed to the fact that a female prisoner becoming pregnant in the jail showed a serious lapse in the security arrangements of the prison. The Tihar Jail Administration also did not report therea�er about any steps taken by it for imporving its security. 4.196 The Commission considered the report of the investigation team and called forth from Tihar Jail Administration a report with regard to the steps taken by it to ensure complecte security of the inmates, in particular the female prisoners. The said report is under examination of the Commission. 33.
