Prisoner 'feared he would die'

A jury has heard that a prisoner whose jaw was allegedly broken by a prison officer feared he was going to die after he was left naked, covered in blood in a padded cell for 30 minutes.

Mr Colm Fogarty said in a statement to gardai that the only time he was not being "lashed out of it" by prison officers was when he was being moved to the Mater hospital.
