A/HRC/16/52/Add.3 happened to her two days before. She had left the compound to go for a walk and returned by herself, but the housemothers put her into the “dark room” and told her she could not to leave the dormitory for two weeks. The “dark room” was not really dark, there was some light, but it was hot and there were many mosquitoes. Other punishments included cleaning, but there were no beatings. The food was alright; they got rice, chicken, peas, sandwiches, etc. 208. Joint interview with five girls, M., aged 16 (seven months at Windsor for protection as a rape victim); N., aged 16 (eight months at Windsor for being “uncontrollable”); H., aged 15 (two months at Windsor for her own care and protection); C., aged 16 (two years at Windsor for her own protection and for being “uncontrollable”); and K., aged 15 (one month at Windsor for her own care and protection). The girls went to school outside of the compound. During certain holidays, they could go together to a hotel; some went home for holidays. There were no beatings at Windsor, but some housemothers were unfair, did not respect them and did not know how to deal with children. Sometimes, children were locked in the “dark room” for up to a week. Most disciplinary sanctions consisted in cleaning or doing other work. The food was sometimes cold. They had been locked down since the previous night. 209. D. K., aged 14, had been at Windsor since 2005; prior to that she was kept at Maxfield, then Glenhope. She preferred Maxfield because she could go out of the compound. Many girls tried to escape from Windsor. They spent a lot of time playing sports like basketball and football. But at the time of the visit, they were in lock-down for a few days because a girl had stabbed another one. The girls often fought among each other. She had only been beaten once by a housemother, who slapped her on the back in December 2009. The housemothers were usually nice. The meditation room was a punishment room for girls who misbehaved or tried to escape. They usually spent less than ten days there. She had never been punished. Hill Top Juvenile Correctional Centre for Boys, Bamboo, St. Ann Visited on 20 February 2010 General information 210. The Special Rapporteur was received by Joseph Small, Acting Overseer and Caulter Lawrence, Acting Overseer. At the time of the visit, 100 boys between 13 and 18 years old were in detention. The capacity of the centre was 96. 211. The prison consisted of a number of buildings, including the dormitories, workshops, agricultural buildings and educational facilities. The roughly 100 boys lived in three dormitories. There were two punishment cells for solitary confinement. The officers seemed to make efforts to vary the diet of the boys, and respect their dietary restrictions. However, there were consistent complaints about the quantity of food. 212. During the debriefing with Officer Small, the Special Rapporteur raised consistent allegations of beatings and the fact that the boys were locked in during the whole weekend. He unconvincingly explained that it was due to a lack of staff. Individual cases 213. R. M., aged 15, had been at Hill Top for four months. Previously, he had spent two months at Montego Bay Police Station. He had been sentenced to imprisonment until his 18th birthday for uncontrollable behaviour, as a result of troubles with his mother. He noted that he did not like sports and that he would prefer to play board or video games. He added that boys who were beaten were taken to the punishment cell, but that it had not happened 58
