PRISON officers have been placed on alert following the surfacing of a voicenote which seemingly originated within prison walls, suggesting attacks were being planned against those in “kakhi suits.”

Acting Commissioner of Prisons Carlos Corraspe told Newsday the service had alerted all prison officers and would do everything possible to protect them.

“We continue to take all steps, working together with the police service and other arms of national security to ensure the safety of our officers. We take it as very serious, and we are trying to do all we can do to ensure our officers are protected and safe in relation to carrying out their duties and, of course, when they leave the institutions and they return to their homes.”
