I Survived Kerobokan

I Survived Kerobokan is the harrowing story of an innocent man jailed in Balirsquo;s infamous Kerobokan Prison. Paul Conibeer, a tourist, had his wallet and phone stolen by street kids and was falsely imprisoned for ten months after being unable to pay his hotel bill. Never bowing to Indonesiarsquo;s corrupt justice system, Conibeer refused to pay lsquo;finesrsquo; to the police and took his chances alongside gangs, murderers and drug traffickers in the crammed cells of Kerobokan. With best-selling author Alan J. Whiticker, Paul Conibeer tells the story of his initial 58-day hell in a stench-filled cell in Kuta Police Station before being moved to Kerobokan. There, he slept on a mat on a concrete floor and learned to survive with a thousand lost souls in a prison built for 300. In prison, he befriended high-profile drug mulesthe Bali Nine and met a cast of characters from around the globe. Paul Conibeerrsquo;s story is sobering and shocking, heartfelt and often humorous. He depicts carefully sketched observations of his time inside Kerobokan and exposes the truth of a place where gangs are in charge, drugs are rampant, guards are easily corrupted and life is cheap.

Ideal for readers interested in true stories and heroism.
