[Rowe] Here's the prison now. This is it.
This place is run by a gang.
My advice to you is do what they say.
They've got their own code of conduct that we have no control over.
[Rowe] My name's Raphael Rowe.
I'm traveling the globe to discover what life is really like…
-[barking] -…inside the world's toughest prisons.
Can you give me a tour? I wanna know how things work here.
There are no guards supervising these prisoners.
Gang leaders, they must obey me.
[man] If you follow these rules, you will get incentives.
If not, you will get disciplinary action.
What's the worst disciplinary action?
Uh…
You must be very careful what you say.
[woman] Our main focus is rehabilitation.
-This is the cell block? -[man] Yeah.
[Rowe] It is unsettling. It's too comfortable.
-You're in for murder? -Yeah.
[woman] I think we have to treat them as human beings.
I don't think it will get any better
if we just lock people up and throw away the key.
[Rowe] "We've got to survive," they say.
Here in prison, we are brothers.
It's a war. It's a war against mankind.
[Rowe] "We've got no choice," they say.
We grew up in this thing.
I don't want my children to be victims of these people.
[Rowe] Is it the only way?
That is the way it is.
