Can you still play mobile phones in prison？ French prisoners take selfies in prison and pass them on social platforms.
Overseas networkAugust 23 rdOn August 1st, two French hip-hop singers, Booba and Kaaris, fought at an airport in Paris and were detained by the police. Although they are temporarily detained in prison, netizens are surprised to find that they are still active on social networks, which makes people question how they play with their mobile phones in prison. In fact, it is nothing new for French prisoners to secretly hold mobile phones in prisons.
According to the French newspaper le figaro, on August 1st, Booba and Kaaris, two French hip-hop singers, and their entourage fought in orly airport, causing flight delays and scaring other tourists, and two of them were slightly injured in the group fight. Finally, the two singers and their entourage were detained by the police. The airport filed a complaint against them on the 2nd. Booba is currently being held in a prison in Essonne province, while Kaaris is being held in Fresnes prison in 94 province.
However, Booba, who was in prison, posted a tweet on the 21st, saying that he wanted to be a "beating bodyguard" like Benara. (Source: Twitter)
Another rapper, a cellmate of Kaaris, exposed a photo with Kaaris on Twitter, and arrogantly typed the coordinates of "Frena Prison" in the label, and then his mobile phone was found in the cell by the prison guards.
It is not uncommon for prisoners to hold mobile phones in prisons in France, but mobile phones that should have been banned are widely used by prisoners in prisons.
In 2017, more than 40,000 mobile phones, chargers and other related accessories were found in prisons across France, which was four times that of 2010. On the one hand, this is related to the surge in the number of prisoners. According to previous reports, the prison occupancy rate of Fresnes in the south of Paris is as high as 200%. Due to the lack of beds in the prison, some prisoners can only sleep on mattresses on the ground.
On the other hand, the way the mobile phone is transported into the prison also makes it impossible for prison guards to guard against it. According to reports, some people usually throw their mobile phones into the courtyard where prisoners walk from the outside; Another source said that sometimes mobile phones are difficult to be detected by machines. "Mobile phone accessories are getting smaller and smaller, and some of them contain very little metal, so that they can hardly be detected"; At the end of July this year, a prison guard in Nanterre was also charged and suspended for allegedly smuggling 10 mobile phones into the prison.
A senior official of the French Prison Administration (DAP) said, "We lost the ‘ The battle of mobile phones ’ " . However, in order to cope with this phenomenon, French Minister of Justice Nicole Belloubet said in January that it would spend 15 million euros (about 120 million yuan) to install mobile phone signal interference equipment, which currently has 804, but only 10% are in use; The department also plans to install 50,000 fixed telephones in the cells so as not to cut off the contact between prisoners and their relatives, and hopes to help prisoners reintegrate into society.
