mates were being held in thepolice station, under theguard of two prison officers.

Mr Harris said the jail hadreached its capacity of 650prisoners.

‘‘As numbers fluctuatefrom day to day and pris-oners are released or makebail, prisoners will be taken

from the watch house backto the prison,’’ he said.

In July last year, authorit-ies confirmed the prison cap-

acity was 600. But authoritieshave now said current oper-ational capacity is 650.
