would have prevented the lives of prisoners as well as the guards by making proper transport system and security . like other countries when transporting prisoners two security vehicles has to go one in front and the one in back , when they picks and drops the prisoner has to be covered from inside the courts that not a outsiders can see . when even on the roads nobody can see . people can see the prisoners only inside the court house . this how they have to improve the system . then nobody will die , all are secured and less work to media show business . that's how these countries everyone is saved , even the police offers has the secret camera and the voice recorder in their uniform who on duty .
