No comment — prison head
In line with his “no comment” policy regarding. Prieur, the superintendent of Christchurch Women's Prison, Mr Jack Allen, yesterday declined to say if Prieur was still in the prison. A radio news report late yesterday afternoon quoted a visitor to the prison as saying that at a time when prisoners would normally be in their cells, Prleur’s cell was empty. Neither would Mr Allen say if he had been
told that Prieur was to appear in the District Court at Auckland this morning to , face an earlier private prosecution, but he said that no prisoner would be taken to court unless he or she had been properly and personally served with a written summons. “We don’t take anything for granted. We would expect it in writing,” said Mr Allen. He also declined to say whether Prieur had been served with any summons yet
