MEXICO CITY, MEXICO A Mexican jail warden fell to his death while spying on couples during their conjugal visits, crashing down next to a Nicaraguan prisoner and his wife having sex, local media reported on Tuesday.
The warden had with him binoculars and a pornographic magazine. | Raul Zarate Diaz, prison warden in Tapachula, on Mexico's southern border with Guatemala, fell 23 feet (7 metres) to his death after tripping on a skylight looking over the conjugal visits section, La Cronica newspaper and InfoRed radio said. |
An official answering the phone at the prison told Reuters on Tuesday that police were investigating but refused to provide further details.
The prisoner who was interrupted attempted to start a riot, but the intent was squelched by prison security, the newspaper said.
