Caught macerating fruit, an inmate attacks the prison police in Bancali . During a check in the isolation ward, the officers found in the non-EU inmate's cell the fruit that he was macerating and that after fermentation would be transformed into an alcoholic beverage.
Antonio Cannas, delegate for Sardinia of the Autonomous Union of Penitentiary Police, gave the news, adding: “At the moment of the withdrawal, the prisoner was going berserk. Attempts to calm him down were in vain, so much so that at a certain point he began to kick, also brandishing a razor blade that he had hidden in his mouth , the police officers on duty, one of whom was taken to hospital for checks”.
"The discovery occurred - explains Donato Capece, Secretary General of SAPPE, - thanks to the attention, scrupulousness and professionalism of the Penitentiary Police Staff on duty". He once again calls for urgent measures to protect the Penitentiary Police on duty: "It would be appropriate to provide the Penitentiary Police as soon as possible with non-lethal weapons useful for defending themselves from the violence of criminals who have no respect for the rules and the people who represent the State. The Penitentiary Police staff is exhausted by the grueling pace of work due to the violent and continuous attacks. And it is serious, for example, that despite being aware of the problems connected to the large presence of foreign and psychiatric prisoners, the competent Authorities have not yet been able to find a solution".
