Four inmates from New Zealand's toughest prison have been charged after a brutal attack on six prison guards last month. The attack is believed to have been premeditated and kicked off after inmates were handed cleaning equipment. Police have today confirmed that four inmates have been charged with a total of 14 alleged offences. The Herald understands that the attack happened when five of the six inmates unlocked at the time were being handed cleaning equipment by the guards. The guards were passing them mops and buckets to clean their cells when the attack kicked off.
