The Central Prison, Nicosia, is on the separate system,
but prisoners are in association in the workshops.
In the District Prisons each prisoner is kept in a
separate cell when there is sufficient room, and they
work in associated gangs during the day.
Warders and Sentries constantly patrol the corridors
and passages and inspect the wards and cells where
prisoners are confined.
