A security worker from the National Institute for Adolescent Social Inclusion (Inisa) was injured in the face by inmates, reported through a statement the Single Union of Workers of INAU and Inisa (Suinau). “A security colleague is attacked in a bestial way, (…) by centimeters he is alive today,” the text said.
The young people from module 1 of the MD18 exSer Home from Colonia Berro were outside the cells and when the educators asked them to enter their cells, they refused. After an hour of unsuccessful convincing, security personnel were called in. When they entered the module to get the young people to enter their cells, one attacked a security officer with an iron.
The situation developed yesterday and currently The man is admitted to the sanatorium of the State Insurance Bank (BSE). As he told The Observer Joselo López, the patient underwent a tomography that determined that the wound was more complex than initially thought. “Although the iron that entered through the gum -under the nose- did not touch the eye, it did cross upwards: it fractured a bone in the forehead and that generated a hematoma near the brain,” explained the president of Suinau.
So far the worker is “stable, lucid and with calm pain“, as reported to the union by the deputy general manager of the BSE, Fernando Repetto.
López shared the Inisa report on his Twitter account and added that the situation in the institute is unsustainable.
INISA’s situation is unsustainable today they almost killed a colleague of us.
Meanwhile, the authorities of the Institution continue to minimize the situation and normalize this type of event, and the Executive Branch looks to the side. pic.twitter.com/RCYvSpXexc– Joselo Lòpez (@joselosuinau) January 28, 2022
Asked about future actions of the institute due to this reality, he explained to The Observer that For now, a public complaint has been made and they are evaluating, together with their lawyers, a possible link with the Corporate Criminal Responsibility Law. “We understand that this has to do with poor management at Inisa,” he said. Furthermore, he added: “If the attack involves any responsibility of the administration, we will act accordingly.”
López assured that he is concerned about the situation of violence that exists in the institution, and related it directly to the management of the president, Rosanna De Olivera (Open Council).
“It generates certain doubts in us that there is a certain intentionality in the mismanagement,” he declared. This is because when the parliamentary session convened by the deputy of the Broad Front (FA) Bettiana Díaz to raise questions about the body ended, legislators Eduardo Lust and Álvaro Perrone (Open Council) proposed that the institute will start operating under the public-private management system.
“If the party of the president of Inisa understands that the solution is to privatize it, one reserves the right to doubt whether all these messes that are happening have something to do with a generation of the catastrophe,” López concluded.
