Now, let's talk about the five hellish prisons around the world. Let's find out what the condition of the prisoners is here and why almost all the prisoners dislike it.
From physical abuse and infectious diseases to overcrowded prison cells and the dangers posed by violent gang groups.
DEVIL'S ISLAND
This area is the most dangerous and notorious prison in the French Penal Colony. Most of those taken to the island were political prisoners from 1852 to 1953, containing 80,000 prisoners. Many of them lost their lives due to illness.
These neighboring islands can be visited by tourists but only Devil's Island is said to be strictly forbidden to be visited by any person.
HMS JERSEY
In the late 18th-century in America, war broke out in the area against the conquering Briton who had occupied New York City at that time. Thousands of American rebels were captured by the British and, as they could not find a prison, they imprisoned prisoners on one of their warships.
They call the ship HELL, this is the HSM JERSEY. In this area contains a thousand prisoners who are almost all experiencing severe torture from the British. They are really hungry, many of them also suffer from various diseases. Imagine, a thousand prices of the ship's contents, while its capacity alone is up to 400 hidden only.
THE MAMERTINE PRISON
This prison is located in Italy. This place is like a dungeon because it is underground, 12 feet deep. This prison was built as early as the 7th century B.C.
It is very dark in this place, there is no natural light entering it so it is really dark. In fact, the only way for you to get out is that it has a hole in the tunnel up and most of the inmates who enter it are those who are set to execute.
There are stories that the Apostle Paul and the Apostle Peter were imprisoned in this place but did not die here. It is said that the Apostle Peter was imprisoned here before he was crucified upside down. This prison later became a church, so now devotees visit this place.
PITESTI PRISON
Pitesti prison is located in Pitesti, Romania. It was called the home of experimental inmates. Others call it the Pitesti experiment.
According to the opened democracy, the experiment was started in inamates prisons. They formed the Organizations of Detainees With Communist Convictions. The inmates here are educated but violently. There was a lot of torture on the prisoners here and the violence against those imprisoned here in 1950 was finally stopped. Nearly 700 prisoners are suffering from severe torture here and 30 have already died.
HOA LO PRISON
This prison is located in Vietnam. It is also known as the Hanoi Hilton during the Vietnam War
. It was good then, they really built it for American prisoners during the war. It has only gotten worse since the number of inmates has increased rapidly. The Vietnamese government uses a cruel method of torturing prisoners here. They do this to raise some concerns about the military secrets of US soldiers.
Prisoners' legs here are often chained. They are so tightly bound here. In the long run it causes leg injuries and infections. Some inmates are also starving here as a way of torturing them.
Prisoners, no matter how serious the crime, whether in the eyes of the law or in the eyes of the people, it is not a reason to torture, hurt too much and give them a prison sentence. Just proof that human rights violations have been experienced since time immemorial.
