As a child I was spoilt by my parents as an only son. My prison cell is a far cry from that luxury. It is spartan and particularly difficult during the hot summer months. Most of the time I have been in physical pain caused by the increasing nerve compression aggravated through neglected medical treatment. The courts freed me on medical bail two years back, but the regime opposed it.
Solitary confinement makes it difficult for time to pass.
Over the years, I won some bare improvements through many petitions and court proceedings through various high courts. Other prisoners have generous visiting rights and other facilities such as mixing with each other to pass the time as a matter of entitlement. These entitlements have been denied to me despite order of courts. I felt discriminated against. The charges of corruption against me are baseless.
