So we are encouraging the families of trial awaiting prisoners who have appeared in court and have been granted bail to bail them out,\u201d Shikongo says.<\/p>\n<p>He says Namibians should be more responsible and should not participate in criminal activities, because this contributes to the increase of inmates in police holding cells.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd then again, Namibians who frequently go to the cells must change their attitudes, because you find somebody who got bail last month, and then another month he is back in the cells. That is the challenge,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Shikongo says overcrowding is nothing new.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor instance: The Wanaheda Police Station has a capacity of 150, but sometimes it goes beyond that.

That is a way to reduce the number of trial-awaiting prisoners,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>The police are considering alternative spaces for keeping trial-awaiting prisoners.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn many countries trial-awaiting prisoners are not supposed to be kept by the police.
