Nafplio prison staff call for measures to stop overcrowding

Staff at Nafplio prisons have sent a letter to the prison’s management, the justice minister and prosecuting authorities to protest about conditions of overcrowding in the prison. In an announcement on Wednesday, they stressed that the latest bill designed to relieve prison overcrowding had minimal impact on the Nafplio prison, which was currently holding nearly 530 inmates, noting that it moved more than 120 prisoners a week and received remand prisoners from all areas of Greece.
