NPS Nabs smugglers of Contraband in Port-Harcourt Prison

Three men have been apprehended by men of the Nigerian Prison Service (NPS) while attempting to smuggle contraband suspected to be Cannabis Sativa into Port Harcourt Maximum Prison while on visits to their relative in Prison custody.

The items recovered were carefully concealed in pairs of sandals which were meant to be gifts to their inmates serving jail term.
