Human pyramids, colour coding and throw-overs are being used to smuggle contraband into Wheatfield Prison. A total of 189 drones carrying contraband, including drugs and weapons, have been detected being flown into the prison this year. The Irish Prison Service (IPS) is cooperating with gardaí in an operation to target the drone deliveries. The joint operation began last month and has led to some arrests and seizures. The range of tactics and high drone detection count indicate an organized effort to supply inmates with prohibited items, prompting increased security responses.
