Plans Underway to Limit Cell Phone Use at His Majesty’s Prison<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Efforts to curb illegal cell phone use by inmates at His Majesty\u2019s Prison are gaining momentum, with the introduction of cell phone jammers expected in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prison Superintendent, Lieutenant Colonel Trevor Pennyfeather, confirmed that the jammers will be operational soon, as part of ongoing measures to enhance security within the facility.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>

“We have made a new plan, and it\u2019s well underway. I would think that within another two weeks or so, given the materials required are provided, the jammers will be in place, certainly no more than three weeks,” Pennyfeather stated.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Previous attempts to use jammers had encountered setbacks due to creative interference from inmates, who found ways to disrupt the system. However, with the revised plan, officials are confident this method will now be effective in eliminating unauthorized cell phone communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This move forms part of a broader strategy to strengthen prison security and prevent inmates from using contraband devices to continue criminal activity from behind bars.<\/p>
