Boossa Prison inmates stage a hunger strike

10 Sep 2020

A group of inmates held at the Boossa Prison in Galle has launched a hunger strike this last morning (10). Sources revealed that 39 out of 45 detainees convicted of serious crimes, including notorious underworld figures “Kanjipani Imran”, “Podi Lassie”, and “Wele Suda”, are engaging in this hunger strike. However, “Potta Naufer”, “Kevuma”, “Army Sampath”, and three other infamous criminals have decided not to support the strike action. The inmates on strike are reportedly protesting against the discontinuation of the telephone facility provided during the Covid-19 outbreak, searching attorneys who come into the prison to meet the inmates, and the search operations being carried out by the Special Task Force (STF). “Kanjipani Imran”, “Wele Suda”, and several other inmates of the Boossa Prison previously staged a hunger strike in June this year, demanding prison officials to extend the time period inmates are allowed outside their cells. They called off the hunger strike following discussions held with prison officials.
