Mumbai: Serving one year jail term imposed by Supreme Court for contempt of court, Best Bakery witness Zaheera Sheikh, has started learning computer in prison and also turned vegetarian.
"She is undergoing a computer course in Byculla jail and has also started learning English," her lawyer Umesh Deshpande said.
Zaheera is concerned about her future and has taken computer education very seriously ands she has also turned vegetarian, he added.
When Zaheera was arrested three months ago, jail authorities had complained to the court that she had been demanding non-vegetarian dishes, which was difficult for them to provide.
However, with time, Zaheera has learnt to adjust and has switched to vegetarian food.
Zaheera spends most of her time offering namaz, writing letters to her lawyer and relatives and learning computer and English language.
19-year-old Zaheera's mother Sehrunissa is very anxious to get her married but Zaheera says she wants to build her career rather than settling down.
Sehrunissa wants her daughter to learn zari embroidery for a living, while her brother Nasibullah has become a scrap dealer and wants Zaheera to join him in business, Deshpande said.
