Continuation of Prison Decongestion: For about 4 years, HRCRC has been representing and trying to secure the release of 36 inmates incarcerated in the Abakaliki Correctional Custodial Center (Prisons) unjustly. These inmates had been discharged by four different courts on four different occasions in the course of our interventions but their detention continued.
Gleefully, 12 of these inmates were discharged again yesterday and were released from detention. As we continue the fight to ensure the release of the others as well as other unjustly incarcerated inmates, we thank all through whose support, collaboration, and cooperation this was achieved.
