What happens when foreigners are imprisoned in Japan? And why do prisons in Japan hold fayres for prison fans?
The treatment of suspects in custody pushes many to confess to crimes that they did not commit, as was the case with one man who spent 46 years on death row. He was finally exonerated six years ago, but was left broken.
We try to explain why a country which operates on strict principles of balance and order might choose such a repressive system, and see if this may explain Japan having one of the lowest crime rates in the world.
