Correctional Services tackles smuggling and overcrowding issues
The Star
|August 18, 2025
THE Department of Correctional Services has plans to address smuggling and overcrowding in correctional acilities, with Minister Dr Pieter Groenewald revealing this during a visit to KwaZulu-Natal.
Groenewald said that following a prison raid, they try to determine which officials were involved in smuggling contraband and disciplinary action is taken.
“Since I became the minister, 155 officials’ services were ended with Correctional Services because they were part of contraband smuggling,” Groenewald said.
“The actions we are taking, of course, depend on what we find. If it is drugs, for instance, we call the police to come in and they lay further charges.”
Groenewald said that in July, Correctional Services National Commissioner, Makgothi Thobakgale, conducted seven raids.
