1.1 Obiski v zavodih za prestajanje kazni zapora in mladoletniškega zapora 1.1 Visit to prisons and juvenile prisons Ob obisku ZPKZ Ig je bilo ugotovljeno, da je bil oddelek za obsojenke v času obiska lepo urejen in zadovoljivo pospravljen ter čist. Obsojenke so tudi pripomnile, da prestajajo različne režime, ki med seboj prostorsko niso popolnoma ločeni, zaradi česar prihaja do težav z upoštevanjem dnevnega reda, na kar je DPM zavodu predlagal, da se preučijo možnosti uskladitve različnih režimov, tako s prostorskega kot časovnega vidika. Več obsojenk je izpostavilo, da v zavodu ni na voljo sredstev za dezinfekcijo rok, katerega si po navodilih osebja ne smejo priskrbeti niti same. DPM je v zvezi s tem zavod zaprosil za pojasnilo. Poleg tega je želel izvedeti, kako obsojenke seznanjajo z možnostjo zaupnega testiranja na okužbo s HIV in virusom hepatitisa oziroma na kakšen način jim posredujejo potrebne informacije o teh boleznih. Na oddelku za obsojenke je DPM še ugotovil, da je bivalni prostor št. 45 hladnejši od ostalih, kar so potrdile tudi nameščene obsojenke, zato je DPM prosil za podatek, ali se temperatura v tej sobi redno spremlja in ali je izvedena zatesnitev oken v tem prostoru dosegla svoj namen. DPM si je ogledal tudi domsko bolnišnico, namenjeno nosečnicam, ki je bila primerno urejena, za kar je zavod pohvalil. V pripornem oddelku je bilo ugotovljeno, da v bivalnem prostoru št. 3 še vedno zaudarja iz odtokov. DPM je zato predlagal, naj se poskrbi za ustrezno sanacijo odtokov, zavod pa naj več napora vloži v ozaveščanje zaprtih glede pravilne uporabe sanitarij. Ker so bile na nekaterih posteljah v času obiska še vedno nameščene pene brez prevlek, je DPM predlagal, da se pene zamenjajo z ustreznimi žimnicami. Pripornicam je v predprostoru (pred bivalnimi prostori) omogočeno medsebojno druženje dve uri pred sprehodom, hkrati pa jim je v času sprehoda omogočena tudi uporaba fitnesa, kar je DPM sicer pohvalil, vendar pa ob tem predlagal, da se pripornicam omogoči uporaba fitnesa izven časa, namenjenega za sprehod, saj zaradi možnosti njegove uporabe pripornice ne smejo biti prikrajšane za čas, ki je sicer namenjen za bivanje na prostem. DPM je še predlagal, da se odprtost sob še poveča in da se v odzivnem poročilu sporočita podatka o tem, kdaj lahko pripornice telefonirajo in ali je odzivnost zavodskega osebja glede prošenj pripornic res slabša zaradi odsotnosti osebja. UIKS je v svojem odzivnem poročilu zapisala, da ima zavod nefunkcionalno razporeditev prostorov, zaradi česar prostorske ločenosti ni mogoče zagotoviti. Zapornice se nad tem sicer ne pritožujejo, zavod pa je predlagal izgradnjo novega objekta. Dostop do zavoda je enostaven, zaradi česar zavod javljanja in časovnega režima ne bo spreminjal. Sanitarno-higienski pregledi se izvajajo vsakih 14 dni. Zapornice imajo na voljo higienske robčke, dezinfekcijska sredstva za roke pa so na voljo pri vodji oddelka oziroma v ambulanti. O možnosti testiranja na okužbo s HIV in hepatitisi so zapornice obveščene ob prihodu, svetovanje pa jim je zagotovljeno ob samem testiranju in po njem. Okna v prostoru št. 46 so zatesnjena in zapornice niso sporočile, da jih zebe, poleg tega zavod ni opazil znižane temperature, zato ocenjuje, da so zapornice zaradi prekomernega odpiranja vrat nizko temperaturo ustvarile same. Odtok v prostoru pripora št. 3 se redno čisti, večje sanacije pa zaradi slabega finančnega stanja niso predvidene. Tudi pene se menjajo skladno s finančnimi sredstvi. Ne nazadnje se pripornice v fitnes ne prijavljajo in koristijo le skupen prostor, zaradi česar je časovna razporeditev po mnenju zavoda ustrezna. Pripombe na neodzivnost osebja pa je zavod zavrnil, saj niti sodelavka, ki se je upokojila, niti nova sodelavka na tem področju pripomb ali pritožb v zvezi z odzivnim časom nista dobili. V ZPKZ Maribor – Odprti oddelek Rogoza so bili prostori zadovoljivo urejeni. DPM je ugotovil, da v vseh sobah ni zunanjih ali notranjih senčil za okna (npr. v sobi št. 9 ni bilo zavese, v sobi št. 12 pa je bila nameščena), vendar pa obsojenci, kot je bilo to mogoče razbrati iz opravljenih pogovorov, tega niso problematizirali. V zvezi s sobo za gibalno ovirane je URSIKS že v odzivu na poročilo DPM o prejšnjem obisku navedla, da problem z ležišči v oddelku rešujejo tako, da po prihodu invalidnega obsojenca na njegovo željo pri podjetju Sanolabor nabavijo posteljo na reverz. Doslej je prišlo le do enega takega primera. UIKS se v odzivnem poročilu do navedenega ni opredelila. V ZPMZ in KZ Celje večjih investicij od prejšnjega obiska DPM ni bilo. Zavod sicer meni, da je nujno treba obnoviti kuhinjo, vendar sredstva za obnovo niso odobrena. Direktorica je pojasnila, da zavoda ni smiselno obnavljati, saj bi bilo treba zgraditi novega, pri čemer naj bi zavod že imel primerno lokacijo za novogradnjo in bo zadevo poskušal čim prej realizirati. When visiting Ig Prison, It was established that the section for female prisoners was satisfactorily tidy and clean. The female prisoners noted that they were subject to different regimes which were not completely spatially divided, which resulted in problems when observing daily schedules. The NPM suggested to the institution to explore possibilities of harmonising different regimes from the aspect of space and time. Several female prisoners highlighted the insufficient quantity of disinfectants for hands, which, according to the staff rules, they cannot supply themselves. The NPM required further clarifications from the management. It also inquired about informing female prisoners about the possibility of confidential HIV and hepatitis testing, or in what way information necessary about these diseases was being given them. The NPM ascertained that room 45 in the section for female prisoners was colder than other rooms, which was also confirmed by its residents, so the NPM inquired whether temperature in this room was monitored regularly and whether the sealing of the windows in this room was performed accordingly. The NPM also reviewed the patient room intended for pregnant women, which was suitably arranged, for which the institution received a commendation. It was established in the detention section of the unit that the odour from the drains was still present in room 3. The NPM proposed that suitable cleaning of drains be implemented and the institution should invest more effort in informing prisoners of the correct use of sanitary facilities. Because foam mattresses without covers were still used in certain beds, the NPM suggested that foam mattresses be replaced with suitable mattresses. The female prisoners may socialise in the anteroom (in front of living quarters) two hours before their daily walk and they may also use the fitness room during the time dedicated to their walk, which the NPM found commendable, but also suggested that prisoners be able to use the fitness room also outside that time since, prisoners should not be deprived of the time intended for outdoor activities due to the possibility of its use. The NPM also proposed that the openness of rooms be increased and that data on when prisoners may make phone calls and if the staff’s response relating to requests for phone calls was actually deteriorating due to the staff’s absence be included in the response report. In its response report, the Prison Administration of the Republic of Slovenia wrote that the layout of rooms in the institution is not functional, which is why the spatial division was impossible. The female prisoners did not complain about this; however, the institution suggested the construction of a new facility. The access to the institution is simple and thus the regime of reporting and scheduling would not be changed. Sanitary-hygienic controls are implemented every 14 days. The female prisoners have access to hygienic tissues, and disinfectants for hands are available from the head of the section or in the patient room. The prisoners are informed about the possibility of HIV and hepatitis testing upon their admission; counselling is provided during testing and afterwards. Windows in room 46 are sealed, and prisoners did not report about being cold. Furthermore, the institution did not notice a drop in the temperature, so it is assessed that the prisoners themselves caused lower temperatures by opening the door. The drain in room 3 is being cleaned on a regular basis; major renovations are not anticipated due to the poor financial situation. The foam mattresses are also being replaced in accordance with financial abilities. Finally, the prisoners do not register to enter the fitness room, and utilise only the common area, which is why scheduling is suitable according to the institution. The comments relating to the staff’s response were rejected by the institution, since neither the worker who retired nor the new employee received any complaints about response times in this field. The facilities were satisfactory in Rogoza Open Unit of Maribor Prison. The NPM established that external or internal window blinds were missing in all rooms (e.g. there were no curtains in room 9, while there was a curtain in room 12); however, the prisoners did not consider this problematic according to discussions conducted with them. Relating to the room for prisoners with movement disabilities, the Prison Administration of the Republic of Slovenia had already responded to the NPM report on the previous visit that the issue with beds was being resolved in a way that, upon the admission of a prisoner and according to his wishes, a bed is hired from the company Sanolabor. So far, there has been one such case. The Prison Administration of the Republic of Slovenia did not state an opinion in its response report on this matter. No major investments were implemented in Celje Prison and Juvenile Prison since the NPM’s last visit. The management believe that kitchen must be renovated, but the funds for renovation had not been approved. The director explained that it was not sensible to renovate the institution, because a new one must be built, whereby a suitable location had already been chosen and they would try to realise the project as soon as possible. 30 poročilo o izvajanju nalog DPM v letu 2014 DržavnI preventivnI mehanizEm po Opcijskem protokolu h Konvenciji OZN proti mučenju in drugim krutim, nečloveškim ali poniževalnim kaznim ali ravnanju IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE NPM IN 2014 National Preventive Mechanism under the Optional Protocol to the UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment 31
