Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 75278, member: 636"] A massive storm trashed part of Khami Prisons Complex near Bulawayo when strong winds ripped through the medium-security facility and damaged three cell blocks plus 160 meters of perimeter fence. No inmates got hurt, and everyone stayed calm while officers moved them to safer buildings during the chaos. Assistant Commissioner Priscilla Mthembu said the prisoners handled everything responsibly, which shows the rehabilitation programs are actually working. Government emergency teams and the local fire brigade showed up fast to assess damage and start repairs on both inmate housing and staff homes. Workers were already measuring roofs and digging holes to fix the fence wall by the next day. A separate hailstorm also destroyed classroom roofs and staff housing at Thekwane High School in Plumtree over the weekend. [/QUOTE]
