No decision yet on charges against Lusignan inmates over reported bid to kill suspected informant

As the probe into last Friday’s unrest at the Lusignan Prison continues, it is yet to be determined if charges are likely to be laid against the inmates behind the reported bid to kill a fellow prisoner.

Acting Director of Prisons Gladwin Samuels, when contacted by Stabroek News yesterday, said that an investigation is ongoing and while the police have since taken a report on the incident, they are yet to obtain statements from the inmates who were involved.

He said information so far has revealed that the prison administration received information of contraband heading into the prison.
