Abstract

The study focuses on selected extraordinary events at the Příbram (Bytíz) Correctional Institution in the period in question -- i.e. on the events that affected the operation of the prison or were so crucial that they could not be overlooked. Chronologically, it deals with the fall of two buildings in the camp in 1962 which changed the form of the prison, mentioning the case of Jan Mikoláš, the only prisoner shot dead in the camp area, more precisely, at the Bytíz workplace, and mapping the riot of the prisoners in August 1968, the largest riot in the history of the Czechoslovak prison system until 1989. Attention is paid to the case of shooting a civilian employee in 1971 and the suicide of a mentally unbalanced prisoner from 1979 when a member of the Correctional Service Corps was killed and another one was severely injured. The study also maps the attempted escapes from the Příbram (Bytíz) Correctional Institution and is supplemented by a table with an overview of all reported deaths of the prisoners in 1961-1986, both natural deaths and deaths due to suicide, occupational injury and mischance.
