Beds and mattresses are mostly worn to the point of uselessness. Detainees pointed out the lack of
pillows in particular. However, in the warehouse we found some new unpacked pillows and blankets,
which were subsequently shared to detainees.
The furniture in the rooms and solitary confinement is worn or missing. There are not enough lockers
for personal belongings provided by the prison, so they are forced to purchase the same at their own
expense. It was also noted the insufficient number of tables and chairs.
In some collective rooms there were found extension cords used to connect additional electrical
devices, such as refrigerators, televisions and other devices, indicating that the rooms are missing
sockets. These cables can pose a potential hazard from both electric shock, and abuse.
In the institution no room is adapted for people with disabilities who use wheelchairs. At the time of the
visit no person in a wheelchair was found.
b) Lighting, ventilation and heating
Rooms and solitary confinements have conditions for natural ventilation, however natural and artificial
light in a number of rooms is not satisfactory.
Ventilation in the rooms is not satisfactory.
The fact is that there are windows through which the airing can be done, but their size is not
proportional to the surface and the number of persons who have been placed in them.
In all rooms there are units of steam heating – radiators.
c) Sanitary conditions
Rooms, solitary confinements, corridors, offices and external environment at the time of the visit were
relatively clean.
Sanitary facilities in most of the rooms do not meet the standards and their renovation is necessary,
also adequate ventilation was not provided. In some rooms toilets are not physically separated at least
with the paravane (cover), by which the privacy is violated.
On the ground floor there is one bathroom with a capacity of seven (7) shower cabins, which are coated
with a waterproof material of white colour with a central boiler that works. The bathroom is clean, neat
and dry; walls are painted, there is natural and artificial lighting, ventilation is functional. Bathroom is not
adjusted for people with disabilities who use wheelchairs.
4.2.2.1.2. The right to food and water
All detainees have easy access to drinking water at all times. Detainees who are on prison regime of
nutrition are assessing food as excellent and are fully satisfied with the quality and quantity. During the
planning, preparation and delivery of meals, the needs of members of all religious communities are
taken into account. To a smaller number of detainees, by their choice, the food is daily delivered by
their families.
