The article here really isn't natural in English :/

[CharlotteN7]

No it isn't. I'm reporting it right now, it shouldn't be there in the English version.

No, it's fine. "In prison" means generally, but "in the prison" refers to a specific facility. Whether it's a great translation I don't know, but it's not necessarily awkward.

[HastaLaVista83]

I'm no native but I thought you say "in prison" if you're a criminal for example who was condemned and is in prison now, and that you say "in the prison" if you visit someone who is in prison.

"No touching!" Also, this sentence sounds very awkward in English.

In British English, it should definitely just be "in prison". You would only possibly use "in the prison" if you had been talking about a specific institution, in which case you'd probably say "in this/that prison" anyway. I'm not sure about American English - it may be different.
