For certain countries, this training has included employment of restraints to place prisoners in hyper-extended positions (hog-tying) and also in the use of batons for neck holds. Such techniques are similar to those that the CPT has recommended be halted.391 Images of ESP training in the use of neck-hold baton technique to police forces in Spain, India and China, [downloaded from ESP website, January 2018]. 8.4. Recommendation CoE member States should introduce appropriate measures to control the supply of technical assistance including instruction, advice, training or the transmission of working knowledge or skills that could aid the commission of torture and other illtreatment. Such controls should:   explicitly prohibit the supply of technical assistance related to goods or working knowledge or skills which have no practical use other than for the purpose of capital punishment, torture or other ill-treatment to any person, entity or body in a third country; similar prohibitions should be introduced upon the import of such technical assistance into the CoE. require prior authorisation for the provision of technical assistance relating to goods that have a legitimate law enforcement purpose but which could be misused for torture or ill-treatment to any person, entity or body in a third country; similar measures should be introduced regulating the import of such technical assistance into the CoE. 391 See for example: CPT, Report to the Slovenian Government on the visit to Slovenia carried out by the CPT from 31 January to 6 February 2012, 19 July 2013, paragraph 67; Report to the Slovenian Government on the visit to Slovenia carried out by the CPT from 31 January to 8 February 2006, 15 February 2008, paragraph 11. 73
