The General Delegation for Prison Administration and Reintegration (DGAPR) has decided to close, as of this Friday, the local prison of Oujda because of its aging infrastructure.

The DGAPR has ensured, in this regard, the transfer of inmates to other nearby penal institutions, the delegation said in a press release, adding that this decision was taken due to the aging infratructure of the facility, whose construction goes back to 1910, and in response to the need to safeguard the safety of detainees and officials.

The construction of a new local prison in Oujda is nearing completion, the source pointed out.
