The official explanation

“The video was made for the jury to see and nothing else, it was not for it to transcend,” sources said. SPB-. Now a summary was started for some issues, such as the entry of a car to the prison and the filming over the wall. “
Regarding the participation of the penitentiaries in the recording, something that was not authorized, in the SPB they assured that “there was no bad intention in that”.
“The unit authorities explained that they wanted promote integration after a difficult year due to the coronavirus pandemic and the lack of visits that the inmates had, “they indicated from the SPB. However, as the participation of the agents was outside the spirit of the initiative,”the corresponding summary was started “.
