Jailbirds in love!: A liberation has come to Denmark that will probably sen the world into a spin that has never been equalled before. The institution that is causing the controversey is that the Ringe prison on the island of Funen. The reason for the contreversey is that the prison authorities have allowed male and female prisoners to mix! each day, prisoners of the opposite sex are allowed to visit each other for one hour and at weekends they are allowed two hours together. It is thought that by mixing together, individual couples may be able to help each other in their efforts to keep out of trouble with the law and apparenlty, prison authorities all over Europe are watching this expirement with great interest. The atmosphere has become so intimate that if a couple wanted to be would be left in peace to do what ever they wanted. Although these rules apply only to those people that are not engaged or married outside the prison. It is expected that in the near future, couples will move into the same prison governor at the RINGE prison, there is one small problem. There are only six female prisoners and there are fifty three male prisoner! and that is one hell of a problem for some of the inmates!
