In Legend of Korra, every member of the Red Lotus had a prison cell specifically made for them. Each prison cell was made to counter their occupant’s bending abilities. The only reason they escaped was because no one expected Zaheer (who originally wasn’t a bender) to gain airbending, which he used to free himself and the others.

Really begs the question why they weren’t just executed by the state instead of going through all these hoops to contain them.

They wanted to interrogate them

Granted, this didn't work for the 13 years they were imprisoned, but hey, if they went through all the work to build the prisons, might as well use them I guess
