During the night he broke the lamps in his cell in the Uta prison, ingesting the neon glass and then in the hospital he tried to attack the doctor and the officers who intervened to stop him.

The episode was made known by the secretary of the Uil-Pa Penitentiary Police Michele Cireddu: «The intervention of the officers was providential who, with enormous difficulty, managed to immobilize him to prevent him from carrying out the attack against the health workers», tells.

«An article of the law provides that in every city where there is a penitentiary institute there is an external hospital department for the hospitalization of prisoners», underlines the trade unionist, «but for Sardinian politics evidently certain laws have been implemented as waste paper. For years we have been calling for the extreme urgency of having a small department available to avoid jeopardizing the safety of policemen, healthcare personnel, other patients and the inmates themselves."

And Cireddu reveals: «The paradox is represented by the fact that the department in Cagliari was built, it could be used but it seems it is used as a tool warehouse for the hospital and no one lifts a finger to hand it over to the prison administration».
