«An attack against a penitentiary police officer in Sassari prison. Yesterday afternoon the operator on duty was hit in the face with punches and elbows ." This was reported by Roberto Melis , national president of Consipe, the confederation of prison unions.

"The policeman was treated in the emergency room in Alghero", reports Melis. His condition is not expected to be serious.

" The Bancali prison is a powder keg ready to explode at any moment, the situation is unsustainable and the policemen feel abandoned, those who should protect them and protect them are missing", is the accusation of the national secretary, according to whom "it seems that no one is interested in this serious situation and what happens to prison officers."

The union representative asks «what is the prison administration waiting for to take serious measures for the Sardinian prison facilities , and in particular for those where the situation is stormy, such as Sassari, Cagliari, Nuoro and Oristano».

Today the regional secretary Gianluca Ghisaura will write again to the institutions «which should ensure that the penitentiary police can carry out their mandate, guaranteeing security - concludes Roberto Melis - we would like the central administration to also demonstrate the same presence and closeness to the police , the regional one, the directions, the commands and the politics".
