An inmate from Gradignan prison in Gironde tried to dress up on Monday.

He tried to escape during a medical visit to the Pellegrin hospital in Bordeaux, explains the union Ufap Unsa Justice in a press release.

Around 3 p.m., this man tried to evade the surveillance of the agents at the level of the Tripod ambulance parking lot.

One of the prison officers received a violent kick in the face.

The latter did not let go of the driving chain and ended up falling to the ground with the inmate before he was brought under control with the help of his colleagues.

In a context of prison overcrowding, the union denounces the absence of sanctions from the management.

The detainee would have returned to his cell normally and on Wednesday, this same individual would not have hesitated to jostle and insult several agents.

Ufap Unsa Justice demands an exemplary sanction of disciplinary district and recalls that another agent received a punch in the face a few weeks ago, without this attack also being sanctioned.
