FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda While Italian prisons have a maximum capacity of 45,000 inmates, most are holding up to 68,000, creating serious health-related problems.
“The situation in our prisons is dramatic, because we have around 30 percent of inmates who have not yet faced their first court case, the very first judgment regarding their case and they are being held as prisoners,” Radicali Italiani’s Andrea Ansalone said.
Italy is working on a series of laws known as “emptying prisons” reforms to be implemented. Under such laws, prisoners are allowed to carry out the last 18 months of their sentence at home.
However, experts have criticized the reforms by saying such laws will hardly put a dent in the number of prisoners, and will only apply to 3,500 inmates after approved by a judge.
Last December, the European Union called on member states to work on the protection of the prisoners’ basic human rights by imposing measures.
Opposing the reforms, Italy’s Radical party has proposed the decriminalization of illegal aliens.
Immigrants make up 38 percent of Italian prisoners.
