Behind Bars - Lepoglava, Croatia: • Behind Bars: Lepoglava...
Rahova Prison on the outskirts of the two Million Mega-City Bucharest is the second biggest prison in Romania. Surrounded by two walls murderers, human traffickers, and worse are serving their sentences. Escaping from here is nearly impossible. Each cell wing is monitored separately. Cameras record all movements in its corridors. Prisoners are in their cells for twenty hours a day. They can only leave under the strictest security measures. Even a walk in the prison yard takes place in cages.
Prison Officer Alina is the chief of Unit Four. Anyone who ends up in this block has either committed a particularly horrific crime or attacked a guard or inmate. Alina is the only woman in this block. She is responsible for around two hundred, exclusively male prisoners. - a job that requires professionalism and a thick skin. In total Rahova Prison is housing 1400 inmates. Every week 60 to 70 new criminals arrive. Every newcomer must first go through an admission process - like 53-year-old Dragosch, who was convicted of serious fraud. Dragosch has already served three and a half years. Two months ago, he was released on probation. Then there was a change in the law. And now he has to serve out the rest of his sentence - a stressful situation for the former manager.
Inmate Atas, who was born in Turkey, has been in Rahova for eight years. He was sentenced to twenty-two years for murder. Atas shares a forty-square-meter cell with six other men. The furnishings are worn and spartan. There is just one toilet for seven prisoners and only one shower which also serves as a laundry room. While most prisoners have to sit in their cell for twenty hours a day, Atas is lucky enough to have landed one of the coveted jobs available to prisoners. At eight o’clock, a guard picks up Atas and his cellmates for work. He first searches everyone thoroughly, because now they’re meeting prisoners from other cells, a potentially dangerous situation. Atas works at the prison’s art workshop. Only those who have behaved well in prison are allowed to work here. The inmates do not receive any money. Instead, they receive bonus points that they can use for visits or special purchases. Atas used to be a successful businessman and earned millions. A stark contrast to his work in the workshop. And he is well aware that one small mistake, one misstep, and all his privileges will be lost.
