Sanremo. «We have learned that yesterday afternoon and until late evening, a prisoner of Moroccan origin held the staff at bay Penitentiary Police in Sanremodevastating the entire section (THE THIRD). The reason for the protest was the failure to credit money for work performed within the Institute” this is what the UILPA penitentiary police, in a press release.
“Neon lights, cameras and even an electrical system cabin were destroyed. A clear sign that the prisons are out of control despite the long-term sacrifice of 36,000 women and men of the Penitentiary Police Corps who, understaffed by 18,000 units, without adequate equipment and disorganized, can do very little to break down the system. Only thanks to the surgical intervention of the Penitentiary Police did the protest not spread to the entire prison population” he states Fabio PaganiRegional Secretary of the UILPA Penitentiary Police.
“Violence, rapes, murders, suicides, illicit trafficking and attacks on staff are proliferating in penitentiaries, the latter at a rate of 10 a day, without the government actually lifting a finger. They are still studying the prison decree. It’s a shame that, while Dr. Nordio studies, the patient dies, as an old popular adage goes, but without metaphor. We reiterate that we need to call an extraordinary meeting of the Council of Ministers to address the emergency from all angles and various incisive measures with immediate effect and Sanremo turns out to be a time bomb. Tomorrow could be too late” concludes the UIL union representative.
