Spanish prisons have seen a significant increase in the seizure of mobile phones, with three facilities – Málaga, Almería, and Albolote – leading the statistics. The widespread possession of these phones, prohibited within the correctional system, poses a serious security risk, fueling conflict and extortion among inmates. Authorities have confiscated over 13,208 phones in recent years, with a particularly high number seized in 2025.
