Heatwaves expose Europe's prison overcrowding
Extreme heatwaves across Europe, especially in France, Italy, and Belgium, reveal issues related to overcrowded prisons and aging facilities. European prisons are facing a serious crisis due to rising temperatures and increasing inmate populations, leading to widespread complaints from prisoners, prison officials, and activists. For example, the French Orleans-Saran Prison, opened in 2014, experienced inmate complaints during the heatwave in June regarding high temperatures and their impact on detention conditions. Reports confirm that these heatwaves have exposed vulnerabilities in infrastructure and highlight the urgent need for repairs and upgrades.
