Nadeem's Addiction
Nadeem Sarwar, 24, is a drug addict who spends much of his time on the streets of Camden, N.J., feeding his addiction. Nadeem moved to South Jersey from his home in Brooklyn to help open a new retail store for his father. After that he became addicted to heroin and now uses multiple times a day.
