According to Seppen, the seven cases of evasion registered until the last update of this report are of prisoners serving sentences at the Dalton Crespo de Castro Public Prison, in Campos. With the end of the deadline for return, inmates who do not report to the units are now considered to have escaped from the prison system and are subject to the measures provided for in the legislation. Seppen highlighted that temporary release is a benefit provided for by law and granted only to prisoners who meet the requirements established by legislation. The authorization is analyzed by the Judiciary, responsible for defining which inmates are eligible to receive the benefit and communicating the decision to the secretariat. Number of escapes is lower than on Mother's Day In the temporary release granted in May, on the occasion of Mother's Day, 17 prisoners did not return to prison units in the North and Northwest regions of Fluminense. On that occasion, the following were recorded: 13 escapes at the Dalton Crespo de Castro Public Prison, in Campos; three escapes from the Carlos Tinoco da Fonseca Penitentiary, also in Campos; and an escape from the Nilza da Silva de Souza Prison. In Itaperuna, there was no record of prisoners who failed to return to the prison system. Considering the 183 inmates who benefited from the temporary release on Father's Day in both regions and the seven cases of escape confirmed to date, the non-return rate is 3.8%. According to Seppen, the balance can still be updated if other cases of prisoners who did not return to prison units are confirmed. The secretariat also informed that it maintains, throughout the year, actions to locate and recapture fugitives through the Search and Recapture Division (Recap). MORE
