PART IV PART III PART II PART I CHANCELLOR OF JUSTICE AS NATIONAL PREVENTIVE MECHANISM II. PREVENTION OF ILL-TREATMENT IN PLACES OF DETENTION 1. Police detention facilities In 2013, the Chancellor carried out regular inspection visits to detention chambers of police detention centres of public order bureaus of prefectures of the Police and Border Guard Board (PBGB). In addition, the Chancellor focused on rooms used for short-term detention of individuals within the area of administration of the East and South Prefectures of the PBGB and analysed death cases of individuals detained in the police detention centres of the PBGB. The inspected facilities included the following: −− inspection visit to Viljandi detention chamber of the police detention centre of the public order bureau of the South Prefecture of the PBGB (case No 7-7/130533); −− inspection visit to Paide and Rapla detention chambers of the police detention centre of the public order bureau of the West Prefecture of the PBGB (case No 7-7/130046); −− inspection visit to short-term detention chambers of the East and South Prefectures of the PBGB (case No 7-7/131201); −− inspection visit to the sobering-up facility of the public order bureau of the North Prefecture of the PBGB (case No 7-7/140068). The Chancellor’s visits to the police facilities were unannounced. The main problems found during the visits to the detention chambers of the public order bureaus of the PBGB (Viljandi, Paide and Rapla detention chamber) are still the shortage of staff (at Paide and Rapla detention chamber) and occasional violations in drawing up of documents in respect of the detained persons (e.g. primary health check reports in Viljandi detention chamber). The shortcomings identified in the sobering-up facility and in the buildings used for short-term detention are described in more detail below. 1.1.
