Arthur Road jail ‘humanly degrading’, says Nirav Modi’s barrister

Billionaire jeweller Nirav Modi’s barrister described Indian prisons as “shameful” and Arthur Road jail in Mumbai as “humanly degrading” on the second day of the 49-year-old’s extradition hearing in London. Clare Montgomery QC said the jail was “grossly overcrowded and easily passes the threshold of being humanly degrading”, as she showed Judge Samuel Mark Goozée pictures of “prisoners sleeping on top of other”.
