The phone of the Zimbabwean prisoner who was bragging about a good life in a South African jail has been confiscated.
“Hello haters, you put us in prison thinking we would suffer. But no, my brother, we are doing extremely fine. Look at how happy we are. This morning, we had breakfast, in the afternoon, we had lunch, and we are about to have dinner,” Banks said, laughing with fellow inmates. “We are happy. If you think we are suffering, you are wrong.”
Phone of the Zimbabwean Prisoner Confiscated
The video has sparked outrage among the public and officials, raising concerns about how inmates can obtain contraband such as mobile phones.
DCS spokesperson Singabakho Nxumalo condemned the inmate’s behaviour and confirmed that the phone used to record the video had been confiscated.
Strict Measures to Prevent Future Incidents
“He is a Zimbabwean national remanded at Goodwood Correctional Centre for kidnapping allegations. A search exercise was conducted, and the used cellphone was confiscated,” Nxumalo said.
He emphasized that such behaviour would not be tolerated and that inmates caught with contraband items would face serious consequences.
