Seven men have been charged after a police inquiry into abusive behaviour by staff at Medway secure training centre revealed by an undercover BBC Panorama investigation.
Kent police said they were charging six men with misconduct in public office in relation to allegations surrounding the privately run child jail in Kent, which was previously run by private security company G4S.
A seventh man has been charged with taking photographs and making recordings inside a prison contrary to the Prison Act and is believed to be unconnected to the Panorama investigation.
In July an eighth person, a 24-year-old woman, was also charged with common assault in connection with the allegations. All eight are due to appear in court in October.
