Prisoners involved in minor crimes will be allowed conjugal visits within jail premises once after every three months, the Sindh government in Pakistan has notified.

According to a notification released on May 7, the facility will be provided to prisoners serving at least five years in jail, but not to those involved in acts of terrorism or who plot against the government, reports the Daily Times.

All prisoners have been asked to submit their nikahnama to the superintendent of jail so that it could assist in verification and identification.

Meanwhile, a notification has also been issued allowing children to live with their mothers inside the jail premises.
