Specialised gangs piloting drones to fly drugs and weapons into prisons are working up and down the country to "beat" the system, the governor of HMP Manchester has told Sky News.
The Category A prison, formerly known as Strangeways, has previously been described as having "ceded" its airspace to illegal drone operators, who are using increasingly sophisticated technology to deliver contraband to inmates.
It’s an issue the prison service, and the government, has been struggling to get a grip on and now a new report has concluded that not nearly enough money is being spent on security.
