The Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) has received orders to put down a riot in Roumieh Prison, New TV reported on Saturday.
A man who said that he was a prisoner in Cell Block D of the prison told the station on the air that “there have been wounded [prisoners] for three days and they have not been moved from the prison.”
“The protests are a result of mistreatment by the guards, who deal with the prisoners according to their sects.”
NOW Lebanon’s correspondent reported earlier that a riot broke out in Roumieh Prison on Saturday when prisoners began protesting cell searches.
