ABSTRACT
When one thinks of the status of the prisoners in this country, or any other country for that matter, a grim situation comes to mind with horrifying details of the reality they must face day by day. Now even if it is true that in this country there are legislations present that detail the rights granted to them along with the Constitution underlining the unwavering nature of the legal system where all citizens are to be treated equally, and the Supreme Court revitalizing the importance of this; it pales in comparison to the true horrors faced by prisoners inside the four walls of brick and steel.
