Newly accredited Deputy British High Commissioner, Judy Kpogho recently visited the Mazaruni Prison and was reported as being pleased with the modern correctional facilities in place as well as the Guyana Prison Service (GPS) reintegration programme.
“I am totally impressed with this facility, it will definitely improve overall security amongst prisoners and officers. You have to create a good living condition for prisoners and at the same time enable them to learn skills that would help them once they have completed their terms,” the GPS quoted Kpogho as saying.
According to a release from the GPS, Kpogho was also encouraged by the comprehensive suite of programmes offered for the rehabilitation of inmates.
