Category A prisons are high-security facilities designed to house the most dangerous and high-risk offenders. These prisons have strict security measures, including advanced surveillance systems, controlled access points, and a high staff-to-inmate ratio. Inmates in Category A prisons are often serving long sentences for serious crimes, such as violent offenses or terrorism-related activities. The primary goal of Category A prisons is to prevent escapes and maintain safety for both staff and the public. Inmates are typically kept in solitary confinement or in secure units, with limited access to outside activities. This level of security is necessary to manage the risks posed by the individuals incarcerated in these facilities.
