Prisons watchdog expresses 'deep reservations' about how inmate was restrained before his death

Ivan Rosney was being held on the D2 landing at Cloverhill, which is for vulnerable prisoners.

The Office of the Inspector of Prisons has expressed “deep reservations” over the manner in which a mentally ill inmate was restrained by prison officers prior to his death in 2020.

The watchdog also raised concerns about the extent of internal and external injuries revealed by a post mortem following the death of 36-year-old Ivan Rosney at Cloverhill Prison.
