Mattarella “The suicides in prison are a defeat of the state. We need the reintegration of prisoners”

ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “There are so many problems that we all know, the first of which is the plague of the suicides of prisoners who do not diminish.” This was said by the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, meeting the Head of Department of Penitentiary Administration and a representative of the Penitentiary Police. “These cases are missing – he adds – is a defeat of the state to which the lives of prisoners are entrusted.”.

For the Head of State “there is a need that must be developed more and more, that of the purpose of reintegration, of recovery of prisoners. For all, especially for younger people. It is not only a constitutional obligation, but it is a choice of civilization and it is also an investment for the security of citizenship. Because the work of recovery, when carried out, leads to an extremely low relapse and therefore it is responsibility that the Republic must cultivate concretely as much as possible”.
