LONDON - An army of 300 highly trained dogs have been recruited to detect drugs being smuggled into Britain's prisons, Member of Parliament Sam Gyimah said on Sunday.
About 225 kilograms of drugs and more than 20,000 cell phone and SIM cards were recovered from British prisons last year.
The Ministry of Justice said investment costing around $2.6 million has seen every prison in the country fitted with hand-held cell phone detectors and portable detection poles.
