5 manats monthly. The most important point is that the above
mentioned issues have been voiced by not just one convict, but
by majority of them, which lets us believe in the truthfulness of
the provided information.
10. Based on the complaints received by the Commissioner from
convicts or their relatives during 2008-2010, as well as the
information collected about PI No.12 during the visits conducted
by the NPM Group, it should be noted that the convicts are
subjected to violence by the management and personnel of the
establishment raises serious concerns. As well as at the interview
held with the convicts during the last visit two convicts, who
requested not to disclose their names as they were afraid that the
chief of the institution would pose a threat to their lives, informed
that they had been subjected to inhuman treatment by the
management of the establishment. During the examination of the
bodies of both convicts the traces of a rubber baton were
observed and the members of the NPM Group drew up a
corresponding report. Then the register of the application of
special means to convicts was examined and it was found out that
the name of none of those persons was among the names of the 7
convicts recorded in the register as the convicts in whose respect
a special mean was applied during the year. Another convict
during the interview stated that because he had appealed to a
local office of an international organization in connection with a
personal issue, he was beaten and his tooth was broken by
Aftandil Aghayev, chief of the institution. It should be mentioned
that in all cases the convicts alleged that they were beaten and
subjected to torture by Aftandil Aghayev, chief of the institution,
and the person called Karim, an employee of the operation unit,
in this or another form.
The Commissioner has requested the MJ to thoroughly investigate the
cases mentioned in respect of PI No.12 and take necessary measures in respect
of the guilty.
