The Secretary of Criminal Affairs, Lucía Masneri, considered during her visit to Coronda that “since December 10, inmates have been arriving at provincial prisons because it is the SP that is trained to maintain security, prevent escapes, and the order of the “The commission of crimes is the responsibility of the police, that is what they are perfectly trained for.”
Let’s remember that days ago The opposition of the Deliberative Council of this city had demanded that no more prisoners be admitted to the Unit because there were already more than 2,700 and that if this action continued, answers would be sought directly in justice.
Given that, the official added that “we are all concerned about overpopulation. But there have been many years without public prison work. The biggest and most definitive and non-palliative fight, and not a band-aid, is 3,400 new jobs in the province. We are going to empty the police stations and reduce the provincial prisons themselves” and regarding the necessary expansion works in Coronda, Masneri stated that “Unit 1 has three instances of renovation, it has to do with drinking water, with sewers and with what “Before, it was the old playpen and the isolation spaces.”
Masneri spoke briefly about the Federal Prison: “The only information was in a zoom where they told us that it will be in five months that the work on the federal prison will be completed,” while about the incorporation process of more than 250 agents that is coming. For the SP, he stated that “this week the exams began, it is the first stage to take” and ended by referring to the attempts to bring drugs discovered in the prison, even in the same siesta on Wednesday there were three: “We celebrate “That the entry or attempt to commercialize is criminally punished, that is not for personal consumption, it is not an administrative offense, it is adjudicable and we celebrate it.”

The official, who is a corondina, stressed that “in Unit 16 we made the first agreement in the history of IAPIP, with private parties for glasses cases in this case, we are going for another one for work clothes, we give employment to the inmates so that they can access a true reintegration” and considered that “it is an enriching experience, a challenge to work with the secretary of criminal affairs Lucía Masneri, who accompanies us.”
Zanón highlighted that “we currently have the capacity to train 550 inmates in trades, which will increase with the new workshops. In Unit 1 there are 23 of them, with serial production and trades. In Piñero, on 5, in Unit 4, where a tailor shop was opened, in Unit 2 of Las Flores, which has a new bakery, with 20 thousand kilos of bread daily, to distribute throughout the SP, we are growing in all the prisions”.
Regarding the conduct to become an IAPIP operator, the director said that “we have some intramural workshops with minor requirements, but outside, in the room, there must be inmates of good conduct, with temporary releases or words of honor granted.”
