It has 192 cells. The three-storey building is situated in a nine-acre compound and has an administrative block. A body scanner has been installed at the prison as part of the security arrangements. A biometric fingerprint lock system is also in place for the entry and exit of staff and others. Cells have been built in such a manner that the inmates in the other cells will not see each other.
