No.3 Medical – Sanitarian Unit do not consider staff units for night duty. As in
other penitentiary institutions, in the Investigation Isolator No.3 as well in the case
of need in medical aid regarding health of convicted or detained persons in
evening or night times, the services of territorial ambulance is used. Such cases do
not occur much a year. Thus, only two Ambulance crews have entered the
territory of the Investigation Isolator No.3 during 2014, and in both of the cases
there was no need in placing of patient to the Medical Institution.
During the next visit to that investigation isolator the Medical – Sanitarian
Unit has already been given into exploitation and it was found out that there were
two X-ray rooms, laboratory, dentist room was provided with modern equipment,
as well as the drugstore was given for use.
It was also observed that the room for private meetings of the investigation
isolator was completely equipped, during the conversations with the persons there
both accused persons and their close relatives came to visit them positively
estimated this.
During the repeated visit to the isolator there were not any complaints on
treatment or detention conditions, and it was found out that many of the
recommendations given during the previous visits were implemented. However
some shortcomings were determined: due to the delay in reviewing of the cases, in
sending the decisions and orders, the density that occurs sometimes in the
institution; incompliance in the quantity of persons detained in the cells to the
square of cells; bringing of drinkable water to the institution by vehicle; absence
of central heating system (the cells are being heat up by electrical stoves);
absences of ward in the medical – sanitarian unit of the institution for stationary
treatment of inmates; inoperative condition of equipment in dentist room; absence
of ventilation system (there was one window) and cooling system (airconditioner) in the roentgenologist’s cabinet.
After the appeal to the Ministry of Justice regarding the abovementioned,
there was made appeal to “Azersu” OJSC, installation of central heating system
was included to the list of repair works of 2015.
The stationary treatment of arrested persons is realized in the regime
buildings, in the cells given to use of medical workers. The technical malfunction
of dental equipment was solved and concerning instructions were given on
installation of air-conditioner in the roentgenologist’s cabinet.
It was noted that the issue of provision of arrested persons and inmates with
living square according to demands of the legislation will be solved with giving to
use of modern penitentiary institutions that are under construction in the districts
of the republic.
As seen, the National Preventive Group does not limit its work only with
visits and recommendations but also continuously follows these processes.
