Prisoner

A prisoner is a person who is held in custody by a government or law enforcement agency, typically as a punishment for committing a crime. Prisons are the facilities where prisoners are held, and their confinement may be for a specified period or an indefinite duration, depending on the severity of the crime committed.

Prisoners typically have restricted freedom of movement, limited access to amenities, and are subject to a set of rules and regulations while in custody. They may also participate in various rehabilitation programs aimed at helping them to reintegrate into society after their release.

The conditions and treatment of prisoners have been a subject of controversy and debate, with some arguing for the need to provide better living conditions and access to education and healthcare, while others argue that prisoners should be punished and that the conditions of their confinement should be harsh to deter others from committing crimes.
