A work stoppage was noted on Monday morning at Huy prison, “to defend a prison officer victim of defamation”, learned the Belga agency from a good source.
Prison officers have been off work since Monday morning at 8:00 a.m. At the origin of the protest movement are comments relayed by Sudinfo under the title “A Huy prison guard filmed on TikTok drinking a beer with prisoners, it’s a shame for our profession”.
In a video filmed by a prisoner and released on Monday by Sudinfo, we actually see an agent, a can and a hand-rolled cigarette. “In reality, the person concerned consumes an energy drink, and not a beer, and smokes a cigarette, and not a joint. Shortly after the revelation of the video on TikTok, he had already been heard by the management who concluded that he had therefore committed no fault.“, explains the source of the Belga agency, specifying that the offending agent announced that he would file a complaint, in particular for defamation, and that the work stoppage would continue pending a reaction from management. from Huy prison.
