Device 'being used instead of jail'

ELECTRONIC TAGS WORN BY 20,000

MORE criminals and suspects than ever are tagged and electronically monitored now because of the broken justice system, say experts.

Over 20,000 wear the devices, up 16% from 17,350 this time a year ago.

More than a third are on bail waiting for cases to be dealt with by the log-jammed court system.

Other electronic devices are worn by criminals as part of their sentence or licensing conditions when released from jail.
