Naman Jawaid spent time in prison in England for fraud which he tells us stems from a gambling addiction he developed. Naman speaks about his experience of prison and his difficulty of accessing help for his addiction in prison, leading us to discuss prison meeting two of its main aims of deterrence and rehabilitation. He also speaks about the people he met and how even though a person might have done a horrific thing they can still be good people, causing us to think about the harm of labelling people as the crime they have committed.
