A woman prison officer in the UK has been arrested after a video allegedly showing her having sex with an inmate in a cell at HMP Wandsworth went viral on the social media.

As per Daily Mail report, 30-year-old Linda De Sousa Abreu has been charged with misconduct in public office.

A police investigation was launched on Friday after officers were made aware of the viral video. An arrest was made later that day and De Sousa Abreu was charged on Saturday, the Metropolitan police said.

Linda was initially seen wearing uniform during the explicit clip. The footage later shows her having sex with the prisoner while his cellmate films on a mobile phone. Footage of the cell shows a TV and piles of clothes heaped over a bunk bed.

The friend while recording says: 'Guys we've made history, this is what I'm telling you.'

At one point, when someone tries to come into the cell, at which the man filming, can be heard saying to the person on the other side of the door 'give me a minute, one second.'

The prisoner filming tells his friend to carry on and then pans the camera round momentarily and, grinning, says: 'This is how we roll in Wandsworth.'

He then tells his friend having sex: 'You know you're gangster innit!'

Two years ago a female prisoner officer faced a similar police probe over a jail sex tape.

More than 80 prison staff have been sacked or ­reprimanded since 2013 for having affairs with inmates, according to official statistics.
