and social support.
The NPM expects that the Institution shall undertake with no delay measures to stop using
previously described humiliating methods and set the procedures that will not violate dignity
of convicts, without jeopardizing security.
The NPM expects that the Institution shall broaden the CCTV coverage in the Pavilion VII, and
ensure that the recorded material (desirably audio as well) be routinely kept on the hard disks
(or on any other capacities) for at least 30 days.
The NPM expects that the Institution shall undertake, in cooperation with the Administration
for the Enforcement of Criminal Sanctions, measures to harmonize the number of convicts with
the current capacities of the Institution. The NPM expect that the Institutions shall also
immediately stop using “three level beds”.
The NPM expects that the Administration for the Enforcement of Criminal Sanctions shall
undertake all available measures under its competence to comply with the CPT
recommendation which relates to the regime applied on the convicts placed in the Special
Department of the Penal Correctional Institution Zabela Požarevac, in way that it shall be
fundamentally changed; individual plans should be developed and appropriate activities put
in place aimed at providing appropriate mental and physical stimulation for prisoners.
The NPM expect that the Administration for the Enforcement of Criminal Sanctions shall with
no delay employ a sufficient number of medical nurses / technicians so as to ensure their
continuous (during working days, weekend and national holidays) – 24/7 -presence in a
sufficient number in the Institution.
The NPM expects that the Administration for the Enforcement of Criminal Sanctions shall with
no delay employ doctors so as to ensure a favourable relationship between the number of
patients treated by one doctor, and to create conditions that a doctor be present in the
Institution during a part of a day on a weekend and national holidays.
The NPM expects that the Institution shall ensure conditions to have exclusively medical staff
giving to a convict a therapy (drugs) prescribed by a doctor.
The NPM expects that the Institution shall abandon with no delay a practice of presence of
non-medical staff, particularly of representatives of the Security Service, in the course of
medical check-ups. Their presence should represent an exception, and exclusively if a doctor
requires so, having an obligation to enter reasons for such a request into the records on
medical check-up.
The NPM expects that the Administration for the Enforcement of Criminal Sanctions shall
undertake measures falling under its competence so as to ensure more active participation of
the Ministry of Health when it comes to the issues of recruiting medical staff, their professional
development, assessment of medical malpractice, issuance of certificates and inspection.
