'Some people in our prisons are determined to traffic contraband into our establishments, however we are equally determined to stop them'
New X-ray body scanners are to be used in Northern Ireland’s prisons as part of the fight against the trafficking of illegal drugs.
The scanners will show internally concealed prohibited and unauthorised articles such as mobile phones, drugs or weapons. “Our fight against illegal trafficking has taken a huge step forward with the introduction of X-ray body scanners into Maghaberry, Magilligan and Hydebank. “The introduction of this technology is a key recommendation from the Criminal Justice Inspector and demonstrates our determination to makes our prisons as safe as we can to facilitate our focus on rehabilitation as we challenge and support those in our care to change their behaviours.”
