Six guards have been suspended and police are investigating following allegations of mistreatment of a male prisoner at a Queensland jail.
Queensland Corrective Services on Friday stood down the six prison officers after being made aware of an incident that allegedly occurred at the high-security Wolston Correctional Centre, in the western outskirts of Brisbane, last month.
"The matter has been referred to the Queensland Police Service for investigation," the QCS said in a statement.
"QCS takes any alleged breach of its officer code of conduct most seriously."
