Poročilo Varuha človekovih pravic Republike Slovenije o izvajanju nalog državnega preventivnega mehanizma za leto 2011 20. Poudarja, da morajo notranjepravni sistemi žrtvam mučenja ali drugega krutega, nečloveškega ali poniževalnega ravnanja ali kaznovanja zagotoviti popravo brez povračilnih ukrepov zaradi pritožbe ali pričanja, omogočiti dostop do sodišča ter jim dodeliti pravično in ustrezno nadomestilo, zagotoviti ustrezno socialno, psihološko, zdravstveno in drugo primerno strokovno rehabilitacijo, ter poziva države, da ustanovijo, vzdržujejo, omogočijo ali podprejo rehabilitacijske centre ali prostore, kjer žrtve mučenja lahko dobijo tako pomoč in kjer so sprejeti ukrepi za zagotovitev varnosti osebja in pacientov; 20. Stresses that national legal systems must ensure that victims of torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment obtain redress without suffering any retribution for bringing complaints or giving evidence, have access to justice, are awarded fair and adequate compensation and receive appropriate social, psychological, medical and other relevant specialized rehabilitation, and urges States to establish, maintain, facilitate or support rehabilitation centres or facilities where victims of torture can receive such treatment and where effective measures for ensuring the safety of their staff and patients are taken; 21. Opozarja na svojo resolucijo 43/173 z dne 9. decembra 1988 o temeljnih načelih ZN za varstvo vseh oseb, ki jim je kakor koli odvzeta prostost ali so zaprte, in v tem smislu poudarja, da je treba vsakogar, ki mu je bila odvzeta prostost, takoj privesti pred sodnika ali drugo uradno osebo, mu omogočiti takojšnjo in redno zdravstveno oskrbo ter pravno svetovanje, obiske družinskih članov in neodvisne mehanizme spremljanja, kar so učinkoviti ukrepi za preprečevanje mučenja in drugega krutega, nečloveškega ali poniževalnega ravnanja ali kaznovanja; 21. Recalls its resolution 43/173 of 9 December 1988 on the Body of Principles for the Protection of All Persons under Any Form of Detention or Imprisonment, and in this context stresses that ensuring that any individual arrested or detained is promptly brought before a judge or other independent judicial officer in person and permitting prompt and regular medical care and legal counsel as well as visits by family members and independent monitoring mechanisms are effective measures for the prevention of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment; 22. Opozarja vse države na to, da je mučenje in druga kruta, nečloveška ali poniževalna ravnanja ali kaznovanja laže izvesti, če gre za daljši odvzem prostosti v osamitvi ali na tajnem kraju, kar samo po sebi lahko predstavlja obliko takega ravnanja, in poziva vse države, da upoštevajo zaščito svoboščin, varnosti in dostojanstva oseb ter poskrbijo za odpravo tajnih krajev za pridržanje in zasliševanje; 22. Reminds all States that prolonged incommunicado detention or detention in secret places can facilitate the perpetration of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment and can in itself constitute a form of such treatment, and urges all States to respect the safeguards concerning the liberty, security and dignity of the person and to ensure that secret places of detention and interrogation are abolished; 23. Poudarja, da morajo pogoji odvzema prostosti zagotavljati spoštovanje dostojanstva in človekovih pravic osebe, ki ji je odvzeta prostost, ter opozarja na pomembnost razmisleka o tem v prizadevanju za spodbujanje spoštovanja in varovanja pravic oseb, ki jim je odvzeta prostost, ter v zvezi na pomisleke glede kazni s samico, kadar pomeni mučenje ali drugo kruto, nečloveško ali poniževalno ravnanje ali kaznovanje; 23. Emphasizes that conditions of detention must respect the dignity and human rights of detainees, highlights the importance of reflecting on this in efforts to promote respect for and protection of the rights of detainees, and notes in this regard concerns about solitary confinement when it amounts to torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment; 24. Poziva države, da sprejmejo primerne in učinkovite pravne, upravne, sodne in druge ukrepe za preprečevanje in prepoved izdelovanja, trgovanja, izvoza, uvoza in uporabe opreme, katere edini praktični namen je uporaba pri mučenju ali drugem krutem, nečloveškem ali poniževalnem ravnanju ali kaznovanju; 24. Calls upon all States to take appropriate effective legislative, administrative, judicial and other measures to prevent and prohibit the production, trade, export, import and use of equipment that have no practical use other than for the purpose of torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment; 25. Spodbuja vse države, ki tega še niso storile, da čim prej postanejo pogodbenice konvencije, in poziva države pogodbenice, da čim prej preučijo možnost podpisa in ratifikacije izbirnega protokola h konvenciji; 25. Urges all States that have not yet done so to become parties to the Convention as a matter of priority, and calls upon States parties to give early consideration to signing and ratifying the Optional Protocol to the Convention; 26. Spodbuja vse države pogodbenice konvencije, ki tega še niso storile, da oblikujejo izjave iz 21. in 22. člena glede meddržavnega sporočanja in sporočanja med posamezniki, da preučijo možnost umika pridržkov k 20. členu in da zaradi povečanja učinkovitosti odbora čim prej obvestijo generalnega sekretarja o sprejetju dopolnil k 17. in 18. členu; 26. Urges all States parties to the Convention that have not yet done so to make the declarations provided for in articles 21 and 22 concerning inter-State and individual communications, to consider the possibility of withdrawing their reservations to article 20 and to notify the Secretary-General of their acceptance of the amendments to articles 17 and 18 with a view to enhancing the effectiveness of the Committee as soon as possible; 27. Spodbuja države pogodbenice k doslednemu izpolnjevanju obveznosti po konvenciji in glede na veliko nepravočasno predloženih poročil tudi obveznosti glede predložitve poročila v skladu z 19. členom konvencije ter jih vabi, da v poročila vključijo vidik spola in podatke, ki se nanašajo na otroke, mladostnike in invalide; 150 Implementation of the Duties and Powers of the National Preventive Mechanism in 2011 Državni preventivni mehanizem v Republiki Sloveniji po Opcijskem protokolu h Konvenciji OZN proti mučenju in drugim krutim, nečloveškim ali poniževalnim kaznim ali ravnanju 27.
