This US inmate wants pasta in Delhi’s Tihar Jail. But what does a prisoner’s meal look like?

American Matthew VanDyke, facing terror charges, seeks permission to cook his own meals. He claims Tihar Jail’s food is unsuitable and has been on a hunger strike. VanDyke, a former war correspondent, was arrested by the NIA for alleged drone training activities. Tihar Jail follows a fixed diet plan for its over 20,000 inmates. A Delhi court will hear VanDyke’s plea for a special diet on July 21.
