Shetye, 40, was a jail warden serving the last few months of her 14-year jail term for murdering her sister-in-law in 1996. She had complained about some missing ration from the jail food stock in June.


She was allegedly summoned by a woman jailor and beaten up brutally, according to witness statements recorded by the police.


Indrani has been named as an accused in a case of rioting and unlawful assembly inside the jail along with Divya Pahuja, an accused in Haryana gangster Sandeep Gadholi encounter case, and others.


Indrani had earlier told a special CBI court that she was threatened and assaulted after she said that she would give a statement in connection with Shette's death.
