Mangaluru, Jan 8: As many as four police personnel, including a sub-inspector, were injured in a communal clash at the district jail in Kodialbail on Monday. Ten inmates were also injured.

A fight broke out between Mithun, who has been arrested in connection with the stabbing at Kalladka, and Sadik, who is in jail in the Sharath Madivala murder case, police sources said. While Mithun is imprisoned in Barrack B for the past six months, Sadik is housed in Barrack A since August.

The district jail in Mangaluru is perhaps the only prison in the country to have separate barracks for Hindus and Muslims.

Sources said a cold war has been going on between the two communities for the past several months. Matters came to a head on Monday evening during dinner break which is also the time for visitors. Around 7pm, inmates of barrack A stormed into barrack B by damaging the door.

A case has been lodged at Barke police station here.
