At the Carmel Prison, security officers thwarted an attempt to smuggle cigarettes to prisoners in isolation.
During the routine food distribution in the ward, a prison officer noticed odd behavior on the part of one of the prisoners.
Searching in the prisoner's cell, she discovered cigarettes hidden within a loaf of sliced bread.
"This is a serious violation of the conditions of the isolation cell," the Prison Service said, adding that the prisoner was tried and received corrective discipline.
