This, according to the prison union, is the trigger for the attack that occurred a few hours ago inside the Poggioreale prison, where an inmate beat two prison officers, forcing them to seek hospital treatment.

Raffaele Serra, union leader of the Autonomous Penitentiary Police Union (Sappe), made the incident public, describing it as yet another act of violence against staff.
