in the prison service and the Directorate for Execution of Sanctions need to take continuous measures to check and control the attitude and actions of the representatives of the
Security Department towards convicts;
Efforts should be made to increase the number of prison staff (in the prison police and
the security department) and to take steps to ensure that at least one female employee is
on duty at any time in the Prison. Any transferring of staff from another institutions must
be followed by previous training and acquired skills to work in places where persons are
deprived of their freedom;
In coordination with the health authorities to undertake urgent measures to ensure the
constant presence of appropriate medical staff in penitentiary institutions, which enabled
the requests for medical consultation of convicts/detainees to be answered without unnecessary delay;

the necessary medical devices (thermometer, blood sugar measuring tapes, “Ambu
Silicone Face Masks , “Air Way”, ECG, etc.), for the purpose of smooth performance of a
general examination of convicts.
