The first measures related to the escape from the Badu 'e Carros prison of the 39-year-old prisoner Marco Raduano , boss of the Gargano mafia who was serving a 19-year prison sentence, could arrive in these hours.

The Ministry of Justice has sent inspectors to the Nuoro facility, while the Public Prosecutor's Office has opened an investigation into tax evasion and aiding and abetting.

The Deputy Minister of Justice, Francesco Paolo Sisto, announced the "first results in the next few hours".

Meanwhile, the prison police unions are on a war footing: " This escape is the consequence of the dismantling of security policies : today there are 7,000 fewer officers in Italian prisons, which favors critical events, which are constant and continuous - he says Donato Capece, general secretary of the autonomous Penitentiary Police Syndicate - We have long denounced the easing of supervision, the removal of the sentries of the penitentiary surveillance police from the prison walls , the lack of prison police officers, the lack of funding for the anti-intrusion and anti-climbing systems that often don't work». "Now it is a priority to capture the escaped prisoner but the serious matter brings to light the security priorities with which the agents have to do inside prisons - continues the trade unionist - Worrying signals have been arriving for too long but the various governments and leaders department that have alternated, instead of adopting measures that would guarantee security, they have implemented a penitentiary reform that has undermined security in prisons, many of which are without a director and a department commander".
