It is a cry of alarm, the one launched by the Samuele Ciambriello, guarantor of prisoners in Campania, after the umpteenth tragedy that occurred last night in the prison of Ariano Irpino, where a Nigerian prisoner, father of two, took his own life: “The real emergency in Italian prisons is called suicide.”
“The suicide epidemic – Ciambriello writes in a note – It doesn't seem to stop.

“We are talking about numbers that tell of an infinite torment – adds Ciambriello –. And if we add to the suicides the 36 deaths in prison While the scale of the tragedy remains unclear, it's clear. People continue to die behind bars, often in silence. The guarantor directly calls politics into question, asking for a profound change of direction: "We need more educators, psychologists, and language mediators. It's not enough to build new prisons or boast about some renovations. It's urgent to invest in alternative measures to detention and in the human and psychological support of prisoners. Only in this way can this silent massacre be stopped.”
