Example: The Kemin District IAB TDF actually has not
exercise yard. The way from the TDF to the toilet
serves as the exercise yard.
Example: The Chatkal District IAB TDF has an exercise
yard only nominally since this is just a site of 2 x
2 sq.m. are, and the place for toilet accounts for ј
of the area.
The monitoring showed that only 26.3% of the exercise yards have
shelters from rain and sun, and in 73.7% of TDFs have none.
Exercise yard.
Example: from the observation card: “Due to lack of the shelter, it is hot and it smells awfully.” 145
Example: from the observation card: “It’s very hot, there is no shelter or shade.” 146
Departmental regulations do not establish an exhaustive list of grounds for cancellation or reduction of walks.
For instance, in accordance with the Internal Regulations (par. 4.36), any walk may be canceled or reduced
in accordance with the instruction of the Head of the TDF due to adverse weather conditions or disaster
recovery.
There are concerns that the lack of clear legal certainty and lack of shelters from sun and rain can be used by
the administration of the TDF as the ground for cancellation of daily walks when it rains or snows or shortening
them when the weather starts to go bad.
None of IAB TDFs have sports installations, and prisoners are not able to do full-fledged exercise during their
daily walks.
