Khandwa, Oct 1:. After serial rapist Jaishankar escaped the Parappana Agrahara jail in Bangalore in a dramatic fashion last month, reports of seven convicts including six SIMI activists escaped from the Khandwa jail on Madhya Pradesh emerged on early Tuesday morning.

The convicts escaped in the early hours of Tuesday after they stabbed two security guards.

SP Khandwa Manoj Sharma confirmed the escape of the convicts and said that they would be arrested soon. A massive hunt is on for the convicts and the entire area has been cordoned off.
