A prisoner was caught with a mobile phone at Armley jail after he barricaded himself inside his cell during a protest.

Officers forced their way into Zachariah Morris's cell and found the device during the incident at the Leeds jail on February 23 this year.

Leeds Crown Court heard a senior officer went to the defendant's cell on C Wing at 4.30pm after a report of him making threats to barricade himself into his cell because he was receiving threats from other prisoners.

Robert Galley, prosecuting said officers negotiated with Morris before gaining entry to the cell.
