Prisons in Kerlile

Prisons in Kerlile are run by either the Department of Justice or the Department of Rehabilitative Education. The prison system in Kerlile is widely considered to be inhumane by international human rights organisations.

Until the passage of the Prison Reform Act (2019), there were nine categories of prison in Kerlile, however this has been reduced to three. The Prison Reform Act also began the process of transferring control of all prison facilities to the Department of Justice that were not already under their control.

Kerlile's incarceration rate is one of the highest in the IDU, though the number of prisoners per 100,000 residents was reduced from 600 in January 2018 to 493 as of July 2020.
