Prisoners at the Pointe Blanche Prison begins striking. (UPDATED)

pointeblancheprison23102019~ Alleged Human Rights Violation under New Director.~

PHILIPSBURG:--- All the inmates that are currently working in the Pointe Blanche prison ( kitchen, cleaning, bringing the ice around and other jobs) decided to strike on Wednesday morning because of the fact that the director of the prison is denying the inmates the right to form an inmates association. The inmates requesting an urgent meeting with the director!
SMN News was also informed that the inmates are fed up with the situation of the Point Blanche Prison and they decided to strike until the daily violation stops! The prisoners also demand that the justice system to full fill the ‘aanbevelingen’from the report from rechtshandhaving and CPT. T
The strike continues until such is done or a reasonable (short) timeframe is presented to the inmates.

The strike continues. Nobody will be working! the inmate association met with the director today and were informed that they (prisoners) are not a priority. That the director is preparing for the meeting with CTP that will be taking place next week. The prisoners were shocked by the director's reaction. As they are living under the prison roof and for the director to state that they are not a priority was not what they expected. The inmates informed the director that the prison is full. The 70 capacity was reached. He informed them, that he could take in as much as 86 people if he wants to.

The inmates are left to wonder what’s about to happen with them? They did not get a new meeting date from the director which leaves them in the dark while they are surrounded by cockroaches, pigeons, and doves. They cannot and will not take this anymore and therefore the strike continues.
