Abstract
The law must be firm with lawbreakers. But, prisoners are entitled to human rights by virtue of being human. Although, they have been adjudged by law to be fit for punishment, the prison conditions should be compatible with human life. Prison congestion, while it erodes prisoners rights cannot be blamed on prisoners. But on society and its government and its government who are ultimately responsible for the welfare of the prisoner.
