A fight over watching television led to an inmate in Delhi's Tihar jail being attacked by two others, according to officials.
The incident took place in jail number 5 today, the police said.
The fight broke out in a barrack where offenders aged between 18 and 21 years are lodged, a senior jail official said, adding that two inmates attacked a third one with a sharp metal piece taken from a fan.
The injured inmate had his face cut in the attack. He was taken to the Deen Dayal Upadhyay (DDU) hospital, from where he was discharged subsequently, the officials said.
