A prison guard stationed in the Nafcha Prison was indicted last week on charges of attempting to smuggle cellular telephones into Arab “security prisoners”. He became the second Arab prison guard charged for the same offense in the past year.

Shadi Arabi, 21, from Kafr Solama was charged with accepting bribes to bring the phones to prisoners in Nafcha. When he was apprehended, he was smuggling four phones on his person along with six SIM cards, chargers and batteries.
