The new inmate was beaten for 20 days by the officers in the prison of Santa Maria Capua Vetere.
Having entered the Santa Maria Capua Vetere prison on March 300th coming from the Velletri penitentiary where there had been a protest over the Covid that had just exploded, he was immediately beaten, suffering beatings for days, until the following April XNUMXth, when the "horrible massacre" took place, as the preliminary investigations judge defined the violence during which around XNUMX prison officers beat over two hundred inmates of the Caserta prison to punish them for the protest the day before.
His personal story emerged in the trial of the only two prison officers of the Santa Maria Capua Vetere prison who have the abbreviated procedure and for whom today the Prosecutor's Office requested the first sentences: six years of imprisonment for officer Angelo Di Costanzo and three years and eight months for officer Vittorio Vinciguerra.
The 30-year-old Moroccan Fakhri Marouane (defended by the lawyer Lucio Marziale) was probably the first prisoner punished "in an exemplary manner" in Santa Maria Capua Vetere for the anti-Covid protests that broke out in all Italian prisons between March and April 2023, also resulting in deaths.
Fakhri has joined the civil action both in this proceeding and in the ordinary trial against the 105 prison officers, officials of the Dap (Department of Penitentiary Administration) and doctors of the ASL. But it was precisely in the hearings of the abbreviated trial that he spoke of what he suffered from March 2020, XNUMX to April XNUMX at the Caserta prison, facts that still arouse real terror in him.
After the “slaughter”, the 30-year-old was transferred to the Pescara prison, and there he underwent a concrete re-education process, graduating and obtaining semi-liberty.
