Violent clashes erupted yesterday afternoon at the Airola juvenile prison in the province of Benevento, where foreign inmates and Neapolitan prisoners clashed.
The riots continued until night. According to reports, before calm returned, a group of prisoners literally tore down the armoured door of a cell, causing damage to the walls of the detention section.
"Juvenile institutions in Campania - they comment Auricchio Ciro of the USPP and Eugenio Ferrandino of the UIL PA PP "They have become an explosive mix due to the promiscuity between Italian and foreign inmates. The latter, the two union representatives emphasize, have committed numerous acts of violence, including against prison staff, and are reluctant to comply with any penitentiary rules or treatment."
