Alma 52:8

And Moroni also sent orders unto him

that he should retain all the prisoners who fell into his hands;

for as the Lamanites had taken many prisoners,

that he should retain all the prisoners of the Lamanites

as a ransom for those whom the Lamanites had taken.

Alma 53:6

And it came to pass that Moroni had thus gained a victory

over one of the greatest of the armies of the Lamanites,

and had obtained possession of the city of Mulek,

which was one of the strongest holds of the Lamanites in the land of Nephi;

and thus he had also built a stronghold to retain his prisoners.
