Contraband recovered at HMP after attempted smuggling incident

Her Majesty’s Prison in Balsam Ghut.

Contraband was recovered from His Majesty’s Prison (HMP) this week after prison officers spotted an active smuggling attempt.

Sources informed BVI News that an individual outside the facility was seen throwing packages over the prison fence while wearing a ski mask to conceal their identity.

Prison officers immediately alerted other staff on-site and conducted a search, discovering a package containing a cell phone and marijuana.

Further searches of the facility yielded additional contraband items.

The incident has been reported to the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF) for investigation.

    Them need expand their perimeter and make it y’all concrete walls. People can just walk up and shove thing through the fence or gauge the distance to throw something over big business that.
    Then the only issue left will be potential corrupt hmp officers

    has hit a new low in the BVI. The secure borders have shut down the drugs, people, guns and cash smuggling so now it’s drugs and phones into Balo!

    And for some reason we do not have surveillance cameras around the prison that would identify the person and their scooter?
