A 57-year-old prisoner dies in Martutene prison (Donostia). The Department of Equality, Justice and Social Policy of the Basque Government has pointed out that the prisoner was in prison for physical pain. No evidence of violence has been found and the cause of death has yet to be revealed. The Basque Government has announced the launch of the investigation.

Second 24 hours

He is the second prisoner who has died in the last 24 hours in the prisons of the Basque Country. In fact, on Tuesday, a 22-year-old died in Zaballa (Álava) prison. In this case, an investigation has also been launched to find out the cause of the death of the young person. Thus, Bedi reports that the prisoner was convicted of alleged use of a mobile phone and was transferred to module 13. This module has the worst prison conditions.
