Under this system, criminals are carried an electronic device to monitor their activities. Their location is detected by this device and if they are out of the limit, the police immediately get information. This system is working to constantly take off in crimes, and as a result, the need for prisons has ended. The impact of the prison was closed in 2016, large prisons such as Amsterdam and Bijlmarbaj in the Netherlands were closed in 2016. 1,000 refugees have now been placed in these prisons and a skills development center has also been opened for them.
