"A prisoner threatened the staff, then threw cans into the section with a kind of lit fuse which caused the explosion and then barricaded himself in his room."
The general secretary of the Uil Penitentiary Police Michele Cireddu denounces the umpteenth episode of tension inside the Cagliari-Uta prison .
"With great difficulty, the policemen who intervened, together with the general surveillance manager, managed to enter the room and accompanied the prisoner to another section where there were no objects that he could use to injure the operators and other prisoners ," he explains. the trade unionist.
«In the Uta institute there is a very high concentration of psychiatric prisoners and troublemakers who are creating havoc on a daily basis and almost at every shift - underlines Cireddu -. We have learned from the press that the institutions have designed special facilities for the recovery of psychiatric prisoners which, in our opinion, should be everywhere except in prisons. However, this ad remained a slogan.
"Without concrete interventions - warns the Uil Pa manager - what appear to be real urban guerrilla warfare will be increasingly frequent and the safety of personnel and prisoners who only want to serve their sentences will be increasingly at risk".
