Source- Real News Antigua: An inmate at His Majesty\u2019s Prison allegedly was injured during an altercation on Thursday morning, December 14, at the penal facility.<\/p>

\"\"<\/div>\n

Allegations are that the inmate had his skull fractured by another prisoner.<\/p>\n

Reportedly, he was transported to the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre, where he is being treated and is expected to be admitted, sources say.
\nIt is unclear what prompted the altercation and what was used to cause the injury to the inmate.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n

Meanwhile, there are allegations that the inmate has been using a phone, which is a contraband item, to make calls to persons on the outside and perpetrate scams from behind the prison walls.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Unconfirmed sources claim that, several weeks ago, the Police had a conversation with the head of the prison, seeking to confiscate the cell phone from the inmate.<\/p>\n
