Description
On the eve of his release from Feltham Young Offenders Institution, Zahid Mubarek, a young British-Asian man, was attacked by his racist cellmate. One week later he died of his injuries. How was this allowed to happen? Based on evidence and interviews given to the Zahid Mubarek Inquiry, this new play traces the Mubarek family’s pursuit of the truth.
