Locations visited by the NPM in 2018
Under Article 19 of the OPCAT, the NPM’s task is to regularly examine the
treatment of persons deprived of their liberty in places of detention as defined in Article 4, with a view to strengthening, if necessary, their protection against torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or
punishment.
In 2018, while performing the tasks related to the NPM, I inspected 753
units of detention in 15 places of detention. The table below shows the dates
of the visits, the names of the places of detention as well as the number of
detention units visited.
