An inmate escaped from the sub jail in Davanagere on Saturday night. Vasant Kumar, 23, was an under trial facing charges of raping a woman.
He climbed over the wall of the jail and jumped out. CCTV footage showed that the accused suffered a serious injury after he landed on the footpath. But then, he got up and went away limping.
An investigation has been launched to arrest him, police said.
