Consequently , with just two or three hearings a year , inmates ’ trials justice.initiatejudicialprocess.na can take years , even decades . There are 3,800 inmates at the jail , which was built six decades ago to house 800 , and they engage in a relentless contest for space ( AFP / Getty ) " Posting bail is often not an option because most of those who run afoul of the law are poor , " Phelim Kine , Asia deputy director for Human Rights Watch , told The Independent .

Of course , that does n't mean the coordinated invasion did n't happen – it did , as any number of historians would be willing to confirm , as well as millions of Poles .
