Panama’s Ministry of Security has transferred 29 high-risk inmates to Isla Coiba, a penal colony located on a remote island. The transfer was conducted in accordance with existing regulations, granting the National Police authority over internal security within detention centers. The National Aeronaval Service was responsible for ensuring security during the inmate transport. Authorities have not disclosed the identities of the transferred prisoners or the specific crimes for which they were convicted. This move aims to consolidate the management of particularly dangerous offenders. The Ministry emphasized adherence to legal protocols throughout the operation. The transfer is intended to enhance security measures and control within the penal system.
