The minister said that the administrative area will be separated from the place where prisoners spend the night. The aim is to avoid communication between them and avoid acts of corruption.

This will identify those who have a major impact on issues of racism and street thugs. He believed that by controlling this sector, the number of criminal activities abroad would decrease significantly.
