All hidden in the fecal duct of a toilet in the bathroom of a cell occupied by two Neapolitan inmates. The latter at the time of the protests violently attacked the operating staff", explained Palmieri.
And as a consequence of the attack, two inspectors and three assistants after the attack sought medical care from the hospital emergency room where they were given a prognosis of three to five days.
Also yesterday in the Avellino District Prison a cell phone was seized in illicit use from an inmate who was reported. While on Saturday, again in the Avellino institute, the staff during an inspection round on the walkway of the perimeter wall found a ball with two smartphone-type cell phones inside.
Probably thrown from outside the structure towards the sports field as has been happening lately with continuous throws.
OSAPP National Councilor, Emilio Fattorello, underlines: “The brilliant dedication to duty of the Penitentiary Police in service in the Institutes of the Province which, despite the many critical issues, manages to be a last bastion against the crime that attempts to manage the corruption inside the prisons.
Precisely the lack of staff in the Corps in the face of continuous overcrowding of prisoners will be the basis of the many demands that will be the subject of the National Protest Demonstration called by the OSAPP General Secretariat that will be held on May 16 in front of the Ministry of Justice in Rome where hundreds of members of the Corps, coming from all over Italy, will shout out their anger at the collapse of the Italian Penitentiary system in all its various aspects"
