Why they blame prisoners cause their staff assist prisoners to get in their illegal staff ,Arrest corrupt officials

[@samuelsithole2308]

True, a prisoner having those tools is bcos officials are corrupt n someone outside is involved in making things move in n out of prison. It's not the prisoners who are guilty or should be raided or done ceisure n search if not investigated further. They shouldn't be fooling us by blaming prisoners only, these are organised activities that has multiple ppl operating this system for prisoners

That is Min Groenewald's plan. He said the budget for correctional services are smaller this time, so he is going to make them work for food, as well rent them and gaurd out for outside jobs where they can earn a small amount of money to buy neccessary things and also save till the day they come out to help them mane a new start.

Minister Groenewald must work together with the new minister of justice to find out why bail is given so easily even to repeat offenders.

[@garethmckerrell6888]

also why the prison system is so broken that inmates can easily get these things, anywhere else in the world prison officials would be fired, or jailed themselves

[@MissSlenda]

Let's hope the government can give him the budget that's needed in that department because he really wants these wardners to be held responsible for they contribution to this messed up system in prison.
