CAT/C/TLS/CO/1 (c) Ensure the strict separation of pretrial detainees from convicted detainees, juveniles from adults and women from men in all detention facilities and seek to create separate detention facilities for juveniles as well as for women and to ensure that appropriate services are available for members of both groups; (d) Continue to install video surveillance equipment in all areas of custody facilities where detainees may be present, except in cases in which detainees’ rights to privacy or to confidential communication with their lawyer or doctor may be violated. Such recordings should be kept in secure facilities and made available to investigators, detainees and lawyers. Internal prison complaint mechanism 26. The Committee regrets the lack of information provided by the State party regarding the existence of an internal prison complaint mechanism (art. 13). 27. The State party should: (a) Establish a fully independent complaint mechanism that persons deprived of their liberty can access confidentially and that has the authority to investigate promptly, impartially and effectively all reported allegations of and complaints about acts of torture and ill-treatment; (b) Ensure that all suspected perpetrators of torture and ill-treatment are immediately suspended from their duties and remain suspended for the whole period of the investigation, particularly where there is a risk that they would otherwise be in a position to reoffend, carry out acts of reprisal against the alleged victim or hinder the investigation.

The State party should: (a) Ensure that the personnel of the Office of the Ombudsman for Human Rights and Justice and members of non-governmental human rights organizations are able to access all places of deprivation of liberty, without prior notice or authorization, and ensure that the Office of the Ombudsman for Human Rights and Justice has adequate resources to conduct regular monitoring of all places of detention and follow up on the response of authorities to complaints it brings to their attention; (b) Ensure effective follow-up of recommendations arising from monitoring activities at detention centres and systematically collect data on the outcome of any complaints of ill-treatment received by monitors, including on any investigations undertaken and criminal or disciplinary proceedings resulting from such complaints; (c) Consider ratifying the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.
