The Home Affairs Minister Byron Camilleri has skirted around questions on whether there was a “cage” attached to a prison cell at the Corradino Correctional Facility. Nationalist MP Mark Anthony Sammut asked the minister whether there was a cage attached to a Division 5 prison cell aimed at isolating and humiliating unruly inmates. He also asked whether the cage was removed before an inspection by the Council of Europe’s anti-torture committee. Camilleri failed to answer the questions put to him, instead stating the CCF’s administration has enacted wide reforms at the prison facility. The inmate would be unable to roam freely in the division like the other prisoners or mingle with them.
