The riot carried out by the prisoners confined on the fourth floor of the Benevento prison is news in recent days: “For trivial reasons, a large group of prisoners confined in the detention section of the fourth floor, armed with sticks and clubs, started a collective movement – he claims the National Coordinator of SiNAPPe Fernando Mastrocinque – Unfortunately, two officers paid the price who had to seek medical treatment at the city hospital and an entire wing of the penitentiary was destroyed.”
“Immediately the Penitentiary Police on duty on the fourth floor raised the alarm, but the situation immediately became incandescent, the Commander of the Department immediately rushed to direct and support his staff during the operations implemented to restore calm – continues the SiNAPPE National Coordinator Fernando Mastrocinque – the personnel free from duty responded promptly by rushing to support those already on duty.”
“Our compliments go to the Penitentiary Police personnel who showed a high sense of duty and esprit de corps by taking precious time away from their loved ones and by responding to their Commander’s request to go on duty during such a delicate and excited moment. – goes on the SiNAPPE spokesperson Fernando Mastrocinque – applause must be directly addressed to the Commander of the Department who, with his strong human and professional skills, skilfully conducted the operations that re-established tranquility.”
“A few minutes ago we learned that the 9 arrests made at the end of the riots were all validated, demonstrating the gravity of what happened on Sunday these are facts that put the penitentiary system of the Capodimonte prison to the test, already burdened by a severe shortage of staff; the concerns are strong and affect the physical and psychological health of penitentiary police personnel of every role held, men and women who outside the penitentiary walls are parents, children, brothers or sisters who are often distant from their loved ones and who today more than never need support and concrete actions aimed at protecting them”.
