The injured inmate entered the institution three weeks ago.
Ngomahuru matron, Thomas Hwami confirmed the case but declined to give further
details.
Masvingo Police spokesperson Kudakwashe Dhewa said he is
yet to receive a report on the issue. The inmate’s mother Varaidzo Tandavarira
said her son only entered the institution three weeks back and she is now
worried about the safety of her son.
Tandavarira said her son can neither eat nor drink and he
is on drip at the hospital. “I’m preparing to go to hospital and bring him
food,” she said.
Staff at Ngomahuru have always complained at the lack of
proper facilities at the institution including rooms to house violent inmates
who sometimes bump their heads against walls or tear through roofs and escape
out of buildings.
There are also inadequate rooms for isolation of violent
inmates. Masvingo Mirror
