KARACHI: The classroom is just across the pink and white prisoners’ mosque in Central Jail Karachi. Right above its entrance, painted in brown, there is the first word of the Quran ‘Iqra’ (read). Inside the cool green interiors of the air-conditioned classroom there are some 36 prisoners doing that exactly.
They are all a part of the Criminon rehabilitation programme organised here by the Society for the Advancement of Health, Education and Environment (SAHEE). The NGO, started by Saleem Aziz Khan in 2007, runs two classes on the jail premises – there is also another class just like this one in another, more sensitive part of the jail, with around 20 students.
