The alleged aggressor, an inmate at the center, caused a cut on his neck with a metal container, according to the Professional Association of Prison Officers
The Professional Association of Prison Officials (APFP), an exclusive union in the penitentiary field, denounces the serious aggression that occurred this Friday at the Murcia II Penitentiary Center, in Campos del Río.
In module 9, at 6:00 p.m., a jihadist inmate classified in the second degree and who is in the Special Monitoring File, in its Special Control modality (FIES V), has caused a cut in the neck of an official with a metal container. The official has tried to protect himself with his hand, also suffering injuries to a finger.
Other service officials in the center entered the day room, with shields and riot gear, to reduce the inmate, who kicked another worker in the face, with injuries to his nose and bleeding profusely. With great effort, the inmate was reduced and transferred to the Isolation department.
Given the seriousness of this situation, from the Professional Association of Prison Officials (APFP), they express their concern “for the note in which prison officials were considered jihadist targets and that APFP sent to the Ministry of the Interior, without even the date a response has been received, ”they explain.
For the APFP, this aggression “is the result of the good attitude of the General Secretariat in relation to the inmates, the institutional neglect suffered by prison officials by the Government, which has left us at the mercy of the inmates so that they can beat us without any type of criminal consequence.
The APFP demands from the Ministry of the Interior its own Statute as a normative framework, the transfer to group B of the Corps of Assistants of Penitentiary Institutions, the recognition of prison workers as agents of authority; adaptation of modern and adequate coercive means of self-defense and an increase in staff to adjust them to the real needs of prisons to reduce the aggression suffered by prison workers, as well as a salary update with salary equality with our colleagues of Catalonia, «equal work equal pay».
