On Sunday night, an inmate who had been convicted for killing his stepfather escaped from a prison in Misiones, and an intense operation is underway to capture him. The incident occurred at the Unit VII prison in Puerto Rico, where the 33-year-old Yonatan Ariel Da Silva took advantage of a power outage to jump over the perimeter wall. According to information from the Noticias Argentinas agency, provided by the Primera Edición newspaper, nine guards on duty at the time of the escape have been placed on administrative leave. Five non-commissioned officers and four officers have been suspended from their duties while an internal investigation is ongoing. The Penitentiary Service has announced that it is carrying out the necessary administrative and disciplinary actions to determine the responsibilities of the staff involved. It should be noted that the man was sentenced to life imprisonment in May 2022 for the murder of Patricia Mereles, a crime committed in August 2020.
