A prison officer who was suspected to be involved in underworld activities both within and out of the prison was nabbed on Tuesday following a sting operation.
According to information, officials had conducted a raid on the prison on Monday for illegal items.
During their raid they recovered a phone in a cell of a murder accused who is awaiting trial for the capital offence.
Authorities took possession of the phone and made some checks upon which they made some starling discoveries.
A number of phone numbers and text messages were found inside the phone. Including numbers of the prison officer and text messages sent to him, which suggested that there was regular contact and a good relationship between the two men.
A message purportedly coming from the prisoner was sent to the prison officer using the said phone, asking for another of the previous arrangements to be made.
The officer responded that he needed a certain sum of money.
This was arranged and the trap was set with some marked money for the officer to collect at a certain spot.
As soon as the officer turned up with his bicycle to collect the money, the police moved in and arrested him.
He was taken into custody as investigation continues.
