Section 481 in Punjab Jail Manual, 1996

481. Procedure as to the delivery of letters.

- No letter shall be delivered to or sent by a convicted prisoner until it has been examined by the Superintendent or by the Deputy Superintendent or other officer under the Superintendent's orders, but no unnecessary delay should be allowed to occur in delivery or despatch. If a letter is written in a language unknown to the Superintendent, he shall take steps to procure a translation before forwarding the letter. No letter written in cipher shall be allowed. The Superintendent may withhold any letter which seems to him to be in any way improper or objectionable, or may erase any improper or objectionable passages.
