Court Asks Tihar Jail for Response on Rana's Phone Call Plea
Imagine a person named Rana who is accused of helping with a big attack in Mumbai many years ago.
He is now in jail in India, and he wants to call his family to talk to them.
He asked the court if he could make a phone call.
The court said they would like to know what the jail thinks about this request.
So, the jail has to tell the court what they think, and then the court will make a decision.
