The seven holding cells at the station have a holding capacity of 70 people. The toilets and ablution facilities in the cells had been out of order for more than two years, and detainees were given buckets. It was reported that the cells had been under construction for the past three years. Detainees were not allowed to receive any visitations by family members or relatives. Committee members stated that this was unacceptable, since detainees had a right to receive visitors.
