A man is to be questioned by police after prescription medication was allegedly passed to a prisoner during a visit. It happened at HMP Styal in Cheshire yesterday (Tuesday).
Officers were called to the female-only prison near Wilmslow shortly after 2.30pm in the afternoon. A 66-year-old man had 'passed a small quantity of prescribed medication to a prisoner while visiting' Cheshire Police said.
The man was searched and no further substances were found, the force said. A suspect will now attend a voluntary interview at a later date where he will be questioned under caution in connection with the incident, they added.
