Attempted escape from Shenkoll prison/ Convict caught by security forces

A prisoner in Shenkoll prison has been neutralized by security forces after attempting to escape two days ago.

According to a statement from the General Directorate of Prisons, the prisoner broke through the perimeter, but was captured by security forces about 500 meters away.


"On December 11, 2025, at the Institution for the Execution of Criminal Decisions IMP Lezhë, which functions as a special medical institution, an attempt was made to remove from the premises of the institution a person to whom the medical measure "compulsory treatment in a medical institution" has been assigned, by court decision.
The event occurred at around 09:30, during an auxiliary activity for the waste management in the external regime of the institution, under the supervision of security officers. During this process, the person in question crossed the external perimeter wire, attempting to leave the territory of the institution.
Immediately after the observation, at around 09:33, he was caught and neutralized near the institution by the responsible officers, without any resistance or opposition on his part and without any incident or danger to the employees or the community.
We emphasize that the Lezhë Penitentiary Institution is a special medical institution, where security measures adapted to patients and not to convicts or pre-detainee. This category of persons is treated in a differentiated manner, in accordance with the legislation in force and medical and human rights standards.
Immediately after the event, the competent structures, including the Lezha General Jurisdiction Prosecutor's Office, the Internal Prison Control Service (IPCS), were notified for the continuation of the relevant legal and administrative procedures.
The institution continues to function normally, while organizational and security measures are being reviewed in a preventive manner, in order to further improve the management and safety of patients and staff", the explanation says. /CNA
