After a meeting with Chief Minister D D Lapang, Khasi Students Union president Samuel Jyrwa told reporters here that the state government had agreed to re-investigate the entire jailbreak episode.
On May 31, a hardcore criminal, Fullmoon Dhar, and six other undertrials escaped from the Shillong District Jail.
A Congress leader Thomas Nongtdu, also a member of the Jaintia Hills Autonomous District Council (JHADC), was arrested for allegedly abetting the jailbreak, but was unconditionally released a day later under controversial circumstances.
