The new correctional facility, MBCC at the Ex-control Afgoye neighbourhood in Mogadishu, becomes the second prison in the capital, besides the Central Prison, which currently is the only correctional facility to rehabilitate prisoners.
The city's second prison before the eruption of the civil war was transformed to a health centre known as Keysaney Hospital.
Officials from the Judiciary Sector toured the newly opened prison. Baashe Yusuf Ahmed, Chief Justice, praised the custodial corps and urged them to double their efforts in enhancing justice and reforming prisoners.
Multiple security challenges facing the country such as terrorism means that the capital city should have enough space for offenders to serve their jail sentences.
