Further report on the case

A distressing update, The Times, 20 August 2019:










Warning: if you visit the cells, don't close the cell-door behind you once you're inside! The relative of a friend went into one of these cells the other day, and closed the door, which couldn't be opened again. It took some time for the supervisors to locate the key to open it and to release her. 
Luckily, the young woman who'd locked herself in did not panic. They managed to get her out.
