according to which there
should be a cell equipped
for temporary isolation of
suspects, accused or convicts
who experienced a nervous
collapse (a cell for isolation
of violent inmates), in which
a window opening is not
provided.
In general, the situation
regarding the medical support
of the inmates of the PTDC
NSC RK is in line with national
legislation and international
standards for the treatment
of prisoners. Nevertheless,
the participants of the
Astana NPM members note
that the PTDC NSC RK in
Astana is not staffed with
medical personnel, which
puts in question the access
to qualified medical care for
remand detainees in this
institution.

Astana, “in cell 5 there is a
remand detainee, according
to him, he is ill with chronic
hepatitis, which is proven
and confirmed He receives

him, the PTDC NSC RK does
not facilitate the provision
of treatment due to the high
cost of the corresponding
medications. Although, in
accordance with section 3
of MOH Order No. 92, the
treatment of chronic viral

within the guaranteed scope
of free medical care.” The
management of the medical
service of the NSC RK should
consider this case.
None of the PTDC NSC
RK has created the proper
conditions for persons with
disabilities who are held in
detention there. To improve
the living conditions, social
and medical support for the
remand detainees held in the
PTDC NSC RK, it is necessary:
1) to equip the toilet areas
with sinks and toilets with
handrails for wheelchair
users, to ensure privacy
conditions; 2) to equip the
shower rooms with separate
places with flexible hoses and
stools for convicted persons
with disabilities; 3) to create
and install gently sloping
platforms for movement to
