Hotel K & The Bali 9: The Indonesian Drug Trafficking Prison | #260
About this episode
What do Gordon Ramsey’s brother, drug traffickers, rapists, gangsters, terrorists, thieves, and some of the unluckiest tourists in the world have in common? They’ve all spent time in Bali’s infamous Kerobokan prison, otherwise known as Hotel K: the name that strikes fear into Australian travellers everywhere.
Built around 40 years ago to house 300 inmates, Hotel K is now home to over 1400, over three-quarters of whom are in for drug charges, in a country with some of the most draconian drug laws on the planet. Welcome to Indonesia, where being caught with narcotics could end with you with your back against a wall, staring down the barrels of a firing squad.
