### Water Supply Issues at Linhó Prison Resolved

The **water supply** at the **Linhó Prison** in Cascais, which had been disrupted since Sunday, was successfully restored today, according to the **General Directorate of Reinsertion and Prison Services (DGRSP)**. The **supply was reinstated at 16:30** after addressing multiple breakdowns.

The main leak originated from an **improvised pipe** installed years ago, combining **iron and PVC**, which did not meet technical standards. Since Monday, the prison faced **water supply issues**, with partial restoration occurring on Wednesday. However, due to new failures in the piping, the water pressure could not be maintained consistently across the facility.

The DGRSP indicated that the series of pipe ruptures necessitated a **phased and sectional water supply** to inmates over several days, particularly affecting two areas of the prison. Nevertheless, they ensured that **alternatives were available** for drinking water, personal hygiene, and cleaning of common areas.

Despite the challenges, the DGRSP emphasized that normalcy in daily life at the prison was maintained. This was achieved through the provision of **bottled water** and access to taps in courtyards for sanitary use, alongside ongoing communication from the prison's management and guards regarding the situation and measures being taken.

On Monday, a **reduction in water pressure** indicated a potential rupture, prompting immediate investigation. Various ruptures were identified and repaired, but the issues persisted. The prison houses around **500 inmates** and has a staff of **116 prison guards**. Currently, there is a strike among the guards, lasting until January 10, due to security conditions, leading to minimal services being operational, including meal distribution, which remained unaffected by the water supply issues.

O abastecimento de água no Estabelecimento Prisional do Linhó, em Cascais, que estava condicionado desde domingo, foi restabelecido hoje depois de resolvidas as sucessivas ruturas, adiantou a Direção-Geral de Reinserção e Serviços Prisionais (DGRSP).
