IN A rare incident in Singapore jails, a senior prison officer was allegedly attacked by an inmate on Wednesday morning.
The inmate had apparently used a sharp object, believed to be a pair of scissors, to stab the officer in the Changi Prison Complex more than once.
A well-placed source told The Straits Times that 26-year-old assistant superintendent of prison Jaiy Santosh was stabbed in his stomach and another part of his body, in his office.
A Singapore Prison Service (SPS) spokesman said that "he is in a stable condition and continues to be under medical observation".
A former inmate who wanted to be known only as Michael said that inmates who work as "office boys" are the ones who would likely have the chance to enter the officer's office... Former senior prison officer turned criminal lawyer Rajan Supramaniam said that inmates are also allowed into the senior officer's office during counselling sessions.
