measures or as a result of urging by the Commissioner to the MIA, the successful approach was displayed. Within the frames of this cooperation upon our appeals the replies were received on improving current detention conditions in temporary detention places in compliance with modern standards, continuation of measures on improving material – technical basis, bettering the treatment of detainees, conduction of documentation in relevant registration journals, carrying out of appropriate measures for elimination of revealed shortcomings in the first medical examination and aid and of cases causing them, strengthening the control over the work of temporary detention places.
