The new order is certainly giving us a view of the prison system that most literate people never had before. A social worker on radio said our jails are filled with our brothers and sisters and perhaps we need to be reminded of this as well as we look at the crime and violence in our country. May I tell you that a pensioner sought my assistance to note an appeal on behalf of his son who was sentenced to 9 years imprisonment?
