Prison's mobile phone blocker does not work

The system designed to disrupt mobile signals coming into Sweden’s high-security Hall prison is not working as it is supposed to, allowing prisoners to use mobile phones, reports The Local, Sweden's News in English.

"The installation at the prison – the first prison to receive this technology in Sweden – has been a failure, said those responsible at facility in Södertälje, south of Stockholm.

The system was intended to block out both mobile signals inside the prison walls and register them".
