The conversation with the educator quickly degenerated, with the inmate starting to get agitated - destroying the office - and the woman managing to save herself. It happened in Sassari , in the Bancali prison . The intervention of the officers was providential, restoring order and returning the man to his cell. The work of the police prevented the woman from suffering "significant physical damage, the prisoner exploded his anger by destroying the PC, the printer and every other object in the office, this is what prison workers experience every day ", explains Uilpa in a note. «It was an interview like many others – continues the statement – but suddenly the situation degenerated. The tones got louder and louder, then he suddenly grabbed the PC and threw it into the air. The operator had time to escape from the office while the inmate continued to destroy everything he found inside: printer, chairs, desk and windows."
As Michele Cireddu, general secretary of Uilpa Sardegna , underlines, « episodes like the one that occurred in Bancali are happening more and more often , the educator had the readiness to escape immediately before the prisoner could harm her, but with the slightest hesitation we would have told the yet another serious attack against prison workers. During the last meeting with the new administrator Antonio Galati we highlighted the serious problems facing the institute and the confusion caused by the various directors and commanders who followed one another at the helm of Bancali. We believe it is emblematic that Bancali has been waiting for the Institute's top management on a permanent basis for more than 7 years."
«The Superintendent Galati promised us that he will visit the Institute to personally see the serious situation that we continue to denounce – concludes Cireddu -. Finally, he assured that he had sent a formal invitation to reorganize the work processes."
