Lack of funds slowing revamp of prisons – Acting Director

Jul 13, 2017 News, http://www.kaieteurnewsonline....ons-acting-director/

Director of Prisons (acting), Gladwin Samuels has refuted claims that there has been no follow-up on the recommendations, arising out of the Commission of Inquiry (CoI) into the last fire and unrest at the Georgetown Prison at Camp Street in 2016.

The Director said that the steps have begun to address issues such as staff shortage that was identified by the COI.

“As it relates to some of the recommendations made, we have gone on a recruitment drive where our entry level is filled in terms of recruiting persons to assist in manning the prison,” Samuels noted.

Samuels stressed that “a lot of the recommendations are a work in progress and we have several consultancies going on right now that will serve to guide the implementation of some of the recommendations.”

He, however, explained that finances have been a major challenge to the implementation of some of the major recommendations coming out of the COI.

“There are some 40-odd recommendations that came out of the last Commission of Inquiry (CoI) and a lot of the major recommendations that came out require capital investment which we are currently working on,” Samuels pointed out.

The CoI report cited the combination of overcrowded, uncomfortable and unhygienic confinement at the prison, created the ideal conditions for epidemics, for gangs to prosper and to propagate discontent.

The CoI recommended reducing numbers in the prison to manageable levels as the single most important priority for establishing, a safe, humane and purposeful environment. Towards meeting this recommendation, the government had commenced work to expand the Mazaruni prison in Region Seven.

Government had injected over $350 million into expansion works at the Mazaruni Prison located in Region Seven, to accommodate more inmates as part of efforts to address the overcrowding at the Camp Street, Georgetown, prison.

Last year, 17 prisoners in the capital section of the Georgetown prison at Camp Street died as a result of an unrest started by the prisoners. It also resulted in damage to several sections of the prison.

Most of what was the Georgetown Prisons was gutted on Sunday after several fires were simultaneously started in multiple locations in the prison in a coordinated attack by the inmates.

The prisoners initially set fire to two locations of the prison – the Strong Cell Division and the Wooden Prison/Condemn Division – but the fires quickly spread to other parts of the prison compound and eventually gutted all the wooden sections of the facility.

Officials have confirmed that the fires were orchestrated by Mark ‘Royden’ Durant, who was convicted in the Bartica and Lusignan massacres. He reportedly had planning to escape for several months now, with one woman accused of attempting to smuggle a grenade to him in the jail.

Following the fire, the authorities were forced to relocate the prisoners to the Lusignan Prison in makeshift conditions. A number of them were later moved to the Mazaruni and New Amsterdam Prisons.

Lack of funds? How so? Granger has been conducting independent inquiries from every government ministries, except City Hall, to recover asset in billions of dollars. The PPP leave the treasury full with money. Moses get an office upgrade and new paved road. Jubilee celebration, 50 yrs rum and black cake for invites and investors, salary increased, etc.

Nehru does cuss ????

Not at all. Nehru is an extremely good person. 

The PNC will be fully responsible if Nehru ever suffers a nervous breakdown. 

If the PNC give me 2 nice gal fuh Backball and thing, I might not expose them ):

Lack of funds?  But they found funds to give themselves 50% salary increase and give Naga a fleet of vehicles to chauffeur him around.

Look now much money they spend on Saru and special commissions to investigate all types of incidents. Chris Ram got he pocket full and produced nothing to incriminate the PPP. Clive Thomas still drawing down a paycheck via SARA but is yet to jail a single PPP. Now they expect us to believe their crocodile tears about not having money to rehabilitate the prisons?

PNC is a classic work at burning and breaking down what the PPP builds. We must forgive them since they only know how to destroy. The PPP will have to rebuild the prison. So it was written.
