Two Correctional Services officials have been fired after a video emerged showing one of them having sex with an inmate at a KwaZulu Natal facility.
The clip, filmed at the Ncome Correctional Centre, was widely circulated online last month, leaving the Department red-faced.

When the video surfaced in March, Correctional Services called it "shameful" and something that can never be ascribed to what is expected of officials.

It's said in a statement on Wednesday night, that disciplinary processes wrapped up this week.

The official who appeared in the video and a colleague, who allowed her to use her office, have both been dismissed.

The department's Singabakho Nxumalo says the inmate has also been dealt with, having lost privileges and been moved to the facility’s maximum-security section.
