UK prison officers to demand electric stun guns for dangerous jails

Prison staff in Britain's most dangerous jails are demanding immediate deployment of electric stun guns and additional safety gear following a devastating attack at HMP Frankland, where convicted terrorist Hashem Abedi, the brother of Manchester bomber Salman, was present. The calls for action come as the Prison Officers’ Association (POA) seeks tasers for specialist teams in high-security prisons and advocates for stricter "Supermax" style regimes for highly dangerous inmates, urging police to arm officers with tasers or batons when necessary following an attack that has sent shockwaves through security forces.
