Convicted gang member George Marrogi lawsuits Victoria’s prison system, claiming torture-like conditions aimed at forcing suicide.
George Marrogi, a convicted gangland figure in Victoria’s Barwon Prison, is challenging the prison system in the Supreme Court, alleging severe human rights violations including near-constant isolation, sleep deprivation, excessive strip searches, restricted phone access, and psychological pressure.
He claims these conditions are part of a deliberate campaign to force him to suicide, citing the alleged theft of a sentimental earring and comparing his treatment to Nelson Mandela’s imprisonment.
Seeking court intervention, Marrogi wants changes to his solitary confinement, strip search practices, and access to open air.
Corrections Victoria maintains he is a serious threat due to past violent acts, smuggling, and running a criminal operation from prison, and says its actions are based on security and risk management.
The case highlights the tension between inmate rights and prison safety.
