On Monday evening, a 58-year-old cleaner at the Psychiatric Hospital in Palma was attacked by a patient. Rogelia Oviedo was going into an office when she was grabbed from behind and suffered - in the words of the CCOO union - "a brutal beating". The union says that the patient "was supposedly in isolation" but that the attack was the consequence of "deficient controls of inmates that have been aggravated by endless works that are being carried out".
