A female prison guard accused of being a 'nymphomaniac' who would have sex at work and engage in hot tub orgies with colleagues has denied the allegations made against her, saying she 'has been destroyed' and 'stained for life'.
The female officer, identified only as 'S', would allegedly tell staff at Lantin prison in eastern Belgium as early as 6am she wouldn't be able to work if 'she didn't have sex'.
She was one of ten prison officers at the prison - Belgium's largest - who would attend X-rated jacuzzi sessions after work, where they would swap coloured bracelets to decide who they would have sex with, it was claimed.
'S' would also use a senior employee's office so she could have sex with staff during the working day while they were supposed to be guarding the inmates inside the mixed prison, reported SudInfo newspaper.
But 'S', said to be a local councillor for the political party DFI, said she 'had never done anything like what I'm accused of, adding her 'life is destroyed' as a result of the allegations.
She told La Dernière Heure newspaper: 'I feel a deep injustice, I am deeply shocked. My life is destroyed, the consequences are absolutely colossal, I have been stained for life.'

She added: 'I am shocked by these slanderous denunciations and the proportions they are taking. The image that this sends to my loved ones, to my future employers and colleagues, finally to all those who take the time to know me.
'I've never done anything like what I'm accused of, so I don't know why.'
The female prison officer also claimed she had 'never witnessed' other staff members engage in sexual activity.
A whistleblower had told SudInfo newspaper that the prison staff would hold orgies and how staff had sex inside the jail.
After work, ten prison officers, including three women, would regularly meet up for X-rated jacuzzi sessions at the home of one of the male guards, identified only as 'P'.
The staff would strip off during the sex parties and pick coloured bracelets at random, to determine which members of the group would have sex with each other, it has been claimed.
'P', the organiser of the jacuzzi orgies, was also accused of regularly having sex with female inmates at the jail.
The source, who described the female prison guard 'S' as a 'nymphomaniac', said: 'As early as 6am, she announced that if she didn't have sex, she wouldn't be able to work.'
Governors were told how one manager let 'S' use his office for sex sessions. The female employee was seemingly unfazed by the fact that only a glass partition separated the office from the communal area where other staff worked.
The whistleblower claimed that 'S' had been a regular at the jail visiting her brother, who had been jailed for murdering a gay man, before she became a guard - raising further questions about the levels of security and safeguarding within the prison.
The whistleblower explained: 'She used to come to see him every day as a visitor, being very friendly with the families of the detainees in the waiting room. She was very arrogant and haughty towards the staff who guarded the visiting room.
'Her admission to Lantin was a bolt from the blue, especially because she went from being a visitor for a year to becoming a colleague overnight.'
Her brother has since been transferred to the Huy prison, about 25 miles southwest of Lantin.
Now, the governors at the prison have launched an urgent inquiry into the allegations, which 'S' denies.
The female prison officer's lawyer Michel Degrève said: 'My client formally contests all the accusations made against her. She never had sex at her workplace. She never participated in orgy parties outside. She has never participated in sex games at her workplace or anywhere else.
'The facts are completely false and the words and actions attributed to my client cause extremely serious and irreversible damage to her reputation. These accusations constitute unprecedented violence against my client. We plan to contact the relevant authorities.'
Since October 30, 'S' has been transferred to the women's side of the prison to 'calm her sexual urges' while the guard 'P' has been banned from entering the women's part of the prison, according to reports.
Lantin Prison Director Marc Brisy reportedly sent a message to his staff saying: 'I never thought that one day I would have to write e-mails like this.'
He went on: 'It appears as if I have to remind you that working in a relaxed atmosphere does not mean turning your workplace into a circus, a 'game without borders' or an amusement park.'
He added: 'The establishment is a workplace, not a dating club'.
