Mach Jail, also spelled as Machh Jail (Urdu: مچھ جیل), and colloquially known as Kala Pani, is a prison situated 60 kilometres (37 mi) southwest of the Quetta valley in Pakistan.[1][2] Established in 1929, the prison spans 13 acres (5.3 ha) in the arid, sparsely populated town of Machh.[3] Surrounded by barren hills, Mach Jail stands as the primary structure in this remote area.[3]
Noted for its extreme heat, Mach Jail has been compared to the Cellular Jail in India, which is also known as Kala Pani.[3] The prison has historically been associated with the detention of political dissidents and freedom fighters, particularly during British rule.[3][4] One section, known as the Chili Ward or Ward number 9, is infamous for the punitive treatment of prisoners who resisted colonial rule, including the adulteration of their food with chilies.[3]
