HeraldLive reports that the Department of Correctional Services (DCS) is set to take action against a female warder who was caught on video having sex with an inmate at a prison in KwaZulu-Natal.
The graphic video has gone viral on social media. DCS spokesperson Singabakho Nxumalo said the video, with scenes of alleged sexual activity between the official and an inmate at the Ncome Correctional Centrehas, has left the department appalled, embarrassed and gutted. “Sexual activities between inmates and correctional officials are shameful incidents that can never be ascribed to what is expected of our officials,” said Nxumalo. He said that the official involved had been identified and would be subjected to a disciplinary process with immediate effect, adding that correctional officials were expected to abide by a code of conduct at all times. Nxumalo advised that disciplinary measures had also been instituted against the inmate.
