It has to be confirmed that three inmates were involved when an official was attacked through the usage of padlocks. Other officials had to respond in a attempt to diffuse the situation and a scuffle started. The three inmates suffered serious injuries. They were transferred to an outside hospital and sadly two of them passed away. The other inmate remains in prison for extended medical care. The matter has been reported to the SAPS ( South African Police Service) and the Judicial Inspectorate for Judicial Services,” says Nxumalo
