The Italian Justice Ministry has announced that the country may release around 10,000 people from prison to ease overcrowding.
Some 10,105 prisoners are “potentially eligible” for alternative punishment like house arrest or probation, the ministry stated on Tuesday.
To be eligible for this option, inmates must have convictions that are final and no longer subject to appeal, have less than two years of their sentence remaining and have no serious disciplinary violations in the past 12 months.
The ministry also added that individuals serving time for major crimes such as terrorism, organised criminal activity, rape, migrant trafficking and kidnapping would be excluded.
