ANNUAL REPORT 2019-OMBUDSMANNATIONAL PREVENTIVE MECHANISM 2.11.1. Material conditions Rooms for interrogation and conversation with persons deprived of liberty and minors The police station does not have special rooms for interrogation and conversation with persons deprived of liberty, that is, detained and detained persons. For that purpose, the official offices of the uniformed police officers are used, that is, the office of the shift manager, as well as the official offices of the inspectors. The Law on Justice for Children stipulates that conversation with a child is conducted in special rooms suitable for conversation with a child, but the Police Station does not have such premises either. In this regard, it was also noted that conversations with children are conducted in the official offices of inspectors, or in the office of the shift manager. In order to reduce the risk of inappropriate treatment, that is, harassment and intimidation of persons deprived of liberty, that is, detained and detained persons with whom conversations are held, the NPM team recommends adjusting special rooms that will be used exclusively for conversations, which will be at the same time equipped with appropriate video surveillance. Detention rooms The police station has 4 (four) rooms for individual detention, which are located in the basement of the station itself. All are identical in size, that is, 2 metres long and 1.8 metres wide. In this context, the NPM team stated that the premises do not meet the minimum standards of at least 7m² for individual accommodation. In each of the rooms there was a bed and equipment for rest (mattress, bedding, blanket and pillow), which were in poor condition, that is, used and dirty. In two rooms there was a fixed table and chairs. The general hygiene in the premises was unsatisfactory, and in one of the premises two old surgical gauzes soaked in blood were found. The rooms do not have access to daylight, and only one of the rooms had artificial light due to an installation problem. Namely, the police officers pointed out that due to some problem in the electrical installation, the lamps burn out very quickly. Each of the detention premises had a built-in call system through which the detainee could alert in an emergency. There was also video surveillance in each room, and monitoring was set up in the on-duty service. There is no room for minors’ detention in the Police Station, and from the conversation with the shift manager we determined that an auxiliary room (kitchen) is used for that purpose. 90
