#lawtwitter If you're not following @TripathiGee 's blog, what're you doing? It is astounding how every single piece here teaches you so much, and how beautifully each piece is written.
In this piece for Annotating Criminology, we look at Craig Haney's work on how penal institutions both ignore and aggravate mental illnesses.

The rate at which mental health concerns of prisoners are getting sidelined is alarming. In Delhi's Tihar prison, there are only 6 psychiatrists and 2 counsellors for 20,000 inmates and 16 jails.

“I think people generally have a distorted view of what happens to people in prison. There is no mental health support. There is no rehabilitation. We literally sit there at your expense, doing nothing, getting worse."
How and where do we place IRCs in the liberal democracy paradigm? How can the rights-based politics justify it respond to the pains of those detained in IRCs?
In the first session of @BorderCrim conference, @MFBosworth brought out the narratives of pain of IRC detainees to ask what is it that we can learn while researching detention centres. The 'pains' reflect, resist, and respond to the politics of border control.
Research conducted by @TripathiGee in Delhi's Tihar prisons reveal that between 2018-20, only 1.27% of eligible prisoners received the post-release rehab grant. Interviews also reveal how pandemic exacerbated the struggles of reintegration
