The state in India has sought to devise laws that can effectively curb such threats. However, in pursuit of this objective, many who are falsely incarcerated not only suffer from long periods of confinement in prisons but also experience a long term, debilitating impact on their lives, making reintegration into society extremely difficult. The exceptional provisions in these laws as well as the lack of a solid blueprint on the rehabilitation of such prisoners, result in a travesty of justice and human suffering that is ignored. This article explores the ways in which the rehabilitation of vulnerable undertrials could be centred in the legal discourse and practice to restore some sense of justice and human rights in our society.-Reproduced
