Almost every week after cells have been searched, there are revelations of how easy it is to smuggle tetephones, drugs and armes into prisons, which house not only petty offenders, but violent criminals and terrorists as well.
The same stories also regret that prisons have also become fertile recruitment centres for future terrorists !
On top of these problems is the fact that prisons have been overcrowded for many years in most countries, not only in the EU. This cannot be accepted as an excuse !
What is also very apparant is that international terrorism or violent crime will not suddenly stop ! Only one option remains, if the real object of prisons is to protect the human rights of innocent civilians : to construct purpose built prisons, which also have cells for solitary confinement.
Should it not be an EU responsibility to build such a facility for guilty Terrorists or International Gangsters caught in the EU ? That would probably be the cheapest solution.
