The said algorithm does not, namely, provide for the “immediate release” from the closed detention centre of foreigners who are the alleged victims of violence. Moreover, treatment and therapy offered on the premises of the centre to identified torture victims only deepens mental injuries of migrants in detention. Furthermore, despite the implementation of the said algorithm there have still been instances of conduct incompliant with the “Rules”. a) A foreigner in relation to whom a decision was taken to extend his detention despite a reasonable basis for believing that he had been subjected to violence (determined by a psychologist) and despite persistent threat to his life and health (determined three times by a doctor and recognized in the psychiatric opinion stating that the stress experienced in detention may increase the frequency of epileptic attacks as well as confirmed in two opinions issued by a psychologist stating that the said foreigner should not reside in the centre due to his mental state). Since reporting being the victim of physical and mental violence, the foreigner had spent 4,5 months in the centre. In the opinion of the expert, information providing reasonable grounds to believe that he had experienced violence was available to the staff already in the first week after foreigner’s placement in the Centre, which can be confirmed by the notes of the psychologist and entries in the medical records. In case of doubts in that regard and the need for further verification, appropriate steps should have been taken without any delay.
