Each and every day the minister of correctional services, Ben Skosana, complains about overcrowding in South African prisons. They should rather build more prisons . Besides, if they build new prisons they would create employment opportunities. More people could be employed as prison warders.
Prisoners are, after all, individuals who have violated the rights of others.
They must stay in prison where they belong. The minister must start building new prisons and stop releasing the criminals back into society.
