The video surfaced a day after another footage of Satyendar Jain was released where he could be seen getting massage inside the jail.
New Delhi: A new footage of jailed AAP minister Satyendar Jain has come to the fore where he can be seen getting proper meals inside the Tihar Jail, reported news agency ANI.

His counselor, Senior Advocate Rahul Mehra also alleged that the Enforcement Directorate was leaking sensitive information to the media despite the order of the trial court and undertaking given in the court.

"I am defamed every single minute by their act," Jain said.
Mehra also rejected allegation by the ED that Jain is receiving privileged treatment inside Tihar Jail. "What privilege are they talking about," he asked.
"I have lost 28 kg in jail. Is this what a privileged person in jail gets? I'm not even getting proper food. What privilege are they talking about? No prison rules are violated if an undertrial is pressing his hand or feet," said Satyendar Jain.
A day earlier, another CCTV footage of Jain had surfaced where he was seen getting massage by an inmate, a rape convict.
However, Advocate Zohaib Hossain, appearing for ED, denied the allegations made by Satyendar Jain's lawyer and said that there is not a single leak from the Enforcement Directorate. "We will see that guilty are brought to justice," the advocate said.
Advocate Zohaib submitted that they (Satyendar Jain and his advocates) were advised physiotherapy so he was taking it. Many officials of Tihar have been suspended so far. The LG has also initiated an inquiry. Transfers of some top officers also took place.
Zoheb Hossain further submitted that presuming a leak on our behalf is preposterous. There has been no leak and there will be no leak. The allegation of leaking information is already in the public domain.
