Black Warrant: Confessions of a Tihar Jailer | Sunil Gupta, Sunetra Choudhury

1 post | 1 read

What is life like inside Asia�s largest prison? What happens when a man is hanged, but his pulse refuses to give up even after two hours? Did Nirbhaya�s rapist, Ram Singh, commit suicide or was he murdered? For the first time we have a riveting account from an insider who has spent close to four decades as an officer at Tihar Jail during some of the most turbulent times in Indian political history. For the first time he breaks his silence about all he�s seen � from the first man he met in Tihar, Charles Sobhraj, to the controversies surrounding former CBI head, Alok Verma. Responsible for carrying out �Black Warrants�, Gupta witnessed 14 hangings, the most recent and his last, being that of Afzal Guru. Joining him is award-winning journalist Sunetra Choudhury whose recent book Behind Bars is a bestseller and took her deep inside the maze of prisons. Read this book for the most intimate and raw account of India�s judicial and criminal justice system.

Black Warrant: Confessions of a Tihar Jailer | Sunil Gupta, Sunetra Choudhury

so-so

A book on the inner workings of the biggest jail of India. A book by a long term Tihar Jailer, Mr. Sunil Gupta. A book on the various black warrants issues in his career. A book about corruption, confessions and criminals.
It was a good read, honestly I just had too much expectations with the potential setup.
A quick read with probably a bunch of interesting revelations.
3.5/5🌟
