A female prison warden sent indecent pictures of herself to an inmate she had fallen in love with but the pictures fell into the wrong hands and went viral around Grootvlei Prison in Bloemfontein, SA.
According to the inmate, his relationship with the warden had been going on for more than two months.
When the relationship became common knowledge, prison management gave him an ultimatum - either to hand over the pictures or be transferred elsewhere.
When Daily Sun visited the man in prison on Saturday, he claimed negotiations with the officers even led to him being offered a six-month sentence reduction.
He was sentenced in 2008 to 25 years for murder. The prison refused to comment on his claims that they offered to reduce his sentence.
The prisoner said: "She approached me on Facebook. We shared our feelings with text messages and long phone conversations late at night.
"She provided airtime so we could spend more time on the phone and then she began sending me naked pictures of herself."
Deputy Correctional Services regional commissioner, Grace Molatedi, confirmed that pictures of an officer had surfaced in the prison.
"The matter is currently under investigation," Molatedi said.
