Alwani: Prisoners’ escape from prisons reflects big defect in security system

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) MP, Khalid al-Alwani, of the Iraqiya Slate stated “The phenomenon of the prisoners’ escape from the Iraqi prisons is not new where it happened in Baghdad, Anbar and Basra provinces and reflects that there is a big defect in the security system.”

In a press statement received by IraqiNews.com on Monday, he said “The security forces protecting the prisons have defects because the results of the investigations show that there is a cooperation between the officers and the prisoners in addition to the financial corruption which is not less danger than terrorism.”

“Forming those security elements was not in a good way, politicized and sectarian in addition to the lack of training in the Human Rights fields which results in what happened in Tasfirat prison in Tikrit,” he concluded.
