On 4th November, in response to ever increasingly repressive conditions in HMP Full Sutton, there was an uprising on a-wing.

Muslim prisoners are fighting back against rising Islamophobic abuse, including the prison preventing Muslims from wearing religious clothing.

Muslim women visiting loved ones are being targeted, forced to remove their hijabs and their socks in front of male officers before being allowed on the visit.

Prisoners fought back against violent officers and took control of a wing.

The nationals, a designated team who repress resistance, brutalised those who took part in the uprising.

Eyewitnesses have told us that prisoners were handcuffed behind their backs, then knocked unconscious and severely beaten. their clothes were cut off them and they were sexually assaulted.

The landing was red with their blood.

Over the past 2 weeks, the prison are physically assaulting Muslim prisoners in their cells across the prison, sometimes multiple times in a day.

Some prisoners have serious injuries, including head injuries and broken bones.

They have been denied healthcare.

We must show up for those on the front line fighting state violence. we are in full support of all resistance to the prison system.

Please join us and take action now.
