- Abstract
Prisons mean any jail or place for the confinement of prisoners who are exclusively in the custody of the police. The Pakistani prison system has gone through several transformations. As time passed, the worsening condition of the prison drew the attention of the government and human rights organizations. This led them to realize the crucial connection between prisoner's treatment during incarceration and their likelihood of committing more crimes. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the prison conditions in Pakistan and the extent to which the human rights of prisoners are protected within the country's correctional facilities. This research work utilizes a qualitative research method, including document analysis and face-to-face interviews with prisoners to gather data and provide a holistic understanding of the situation. The findings of this research contribute to the existing literature on prison conditions and human rights in Pakistan and inform policymakers about the necessary measures to enhance the well-being and rights of prisoners. By examining the legal framework, prison conditions, and the prevalence of human rights violations, this research seeks to identify the challenges faced by prisoners and propose recommendations for improving the protection of their rights.
