Reports that female guards had been abused by inmates at Gilboa prison have circulated in Israeli media for several years.
Israel's premier promised an investigation Sunday into allegations by a female former guard at a maximum security prison that she was repeatedly raped by a Palestinian inmate after being forced to work as a "sex slave" by her superiors.
Reports that female guards had been abused by inmates at Gilboa prison have circulated in Israeli media for several years.
But management of the prison came under fresh scrutiny in September last year, when six Palestinian prisoners broke out of Gilboa by tunnelling out of their cells through the drainage system, an escape that captured global headlines.
The past year has seen a series of revelations regarding what some Israeli media call the Gilboa "Pimping Affair," a reference to widespread reports that male supervisors ordered female guards into situations where they were vulnerable to assault by inmates.
