On Sunday 30 March 2025, around noon, an incident occurred at the Luxembourg Prison Centre in Schrassig (Centre pénitentiaire de Luxembourg à Schrassig): an inmate assaulted a prison guard.
The agency staff promptly intervened to keep their colleague safe. However, in doing so, two agents were injured. One of them was taken to the hospital for monitoring and then released, the other suffered minor injuries that did not require medical intervention. The prisoner himself was also medically examined.
The Grand Duchy Prosecutor's Office and the Grand Duchy Police were immediately informed and a task force arrived on the scene. The circumstances of the attack are currently under investigation.
Authorities have not yet specified the prisoner's identity or motives for the aggression.
