NAT GEO. JAILED ABROAD - a virtual experience that SHUDDERS



I have been a TV buff all these years because I almost had no friends and being a loner, it proved a great comrade. I watch so many things of different kind but it is this one program " jailed abroad" on Nat Geo that made me much more sensitive and gave me insight and understanding of people living in this dark lost world away from the bustling world of everyday.

It was here where I learned as how it feels when people really understand what it means to have even a single real support in bad times, what it feels when innocent people fall to traps of dark world where smuggle of gold in NEPAL, or drugs in PERU or BANGLADESH is a daily affair. How all this ruins so many lives and years of innocent people where they are trapped and find no helping hand in an alien country far far away from their home land and loved ones. How people endanger themselves for short lived thrill and excitement even after knowing the truth of the situation.

I would say its a program worth watching and its something which is better when its viewed. I will really not go to length on writing about it but even if i wrote than its more because its something that really moved me inside, whether its situations of people or situations of jails in the countries of this world. Few things that I wanted to write here about convicts life or walls or toilets or officers of jail but I can't write due to highly degradable and inhuman aspects. I remember when two foreigners were released after 2 years, think and imagine their happiness when they saw sun and busy road and city after years. I mean few things only they can feel who are in the situation because their situation is not like every ones and besides those people trapped are not real hardcore criminals.. as what rightly said one of the old lady who helped two girls to return back to their homes. She said " they are not criminals, they have been used by criminals"

ya seriously if many more people be like that old lady then many lost souls and forgotten loved ones can return to their homelands and loved ones. Such behaviour and humanity resurrects hope and cleans fallen dark hearts. I know punishment is must for wrong but law of countries world over has some very blurring lines which never understands what real criminals and fallen angels means.
