LONDON - Three prison officers in UK have been charged with having “sex for favours” with female inmates.

Russell Thorne, 40, Christopher Bevan, 35 and Simon Dykes, 45, are said to have had sex with nine prisoners over the past four years, the Daily Express reported.

The men have been suspended from their jobs at Downview prison in Sutton, Surrey.

They denied a total of 10 charges of wilful misconduct in a public office during a brief appearance at Guildford Crown Court. The alleged offences relate to sexual intercourse, sexual touching and a sex act.
