The Special Rapporteur draws the attention of the Government to the UN Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners (reviewed on 5 November 2015 and renamed the “Mandela Rules”) and in particular Rule 27(1) provides that, all prisons shall ensure prompt access to medical attention in urgent cases. Prisoners who require specialized treatment or surgery shall be transferred to specialized institutions or to civil hospitals. Where a prison service has its own hospital facilities, they shall be adequately staffed and equipped to provide prisoners referred to them with appropriate treatment and care. 193. The Special Rapporteur also reminds the State of Iran that the Committee against Torture and the Human Rights Committee have consistently found that conditions of detention can amount to inhuman and degrading treatment. The Special Rapporteur also encourages the Government to continue its engagement with the mandate and to provide full details of the health conditions of Mr. Mohammad Reza Pourshajari.
