Shared toilet without door - new prison in Fosie already double boarded

A total of 72 inmates and two prisoners in each cell.

A solution to be in solidarity with a heavily burdened correctional system, says Correctional Service Inspector Eric Drameus at Fosieanstalten in Mamlö.

- It will certainly work both well and badly, but that is the situation we are in in both prisons and detention centers.

It is clear that it is more difficult to carry out our mission, says Eric Drameus.

Shared toilet without door

On January 16, the first inmates move in and in a still empty prison, SVT Nyheter Skåne is guided around the cells and common areas.

- What is special about the inmates' room is that the toilet has no door, but the idea was not that we would have a double bed, says Elin Valtonen, correctional inspector at the institution in Fosie.

We are working on a solution with drapery or the like to get around the problem.
