with disabilities are restricted
to walk in the fresh air.
According to Part 5 of
Article 151 of the Correctional
Code of the RoK, “pregnant
women, nursing mothers,
minors, as well as sick and
disabled people are provided
with
improved
living
conditions and increased
nutritional standards”, and
this part is not observed in
institutions. With the transfer
of the establishment of the
penitentiary system under
the Ministry of Internal
Affairs of the Republic of
Kazakhstan from the Ministry
of Justice of the Republic of
Kazakhstan, in institutions,
individual barracks for the
persons with disabilities to
live are gradually annulled
and they are held together
with other convicts, which,
in our opinion, is a violation
of the rights of persons with
disabilities. According to the
legislation of the Republic of
Kazakhstan it is necessary to
restore their lost rights. There
are no adequate conditions
for convicted persons with
disabilities in the bathrooms,
washing rooms, toilets, etc.,
which are not equipped with
27
special handrails for them,
and they can get injured. It is
necessary to return or equip
the barracks, where convicted
persons with disabilities are
kept, with all the necessary
conditions for their safe
living.
Often
convicts
from
another state, in particular
citizens of the Kyrgyz
Republic, are not accepted for
further serving the sentence.
A special preventive visit
to UJD 158/4 showed that
35 convicted citizens of the
Kyrgyz Republic are kept
there, of which 32 convicts
petitioned
through
the
General Prosecutor’s Office of
the Republic of Kazakhstan to
continue serving the sentence
in the Kyrgyz Republic at
the place of residence, 29
convicts got a refusal from
the Prosecutor General of
the Kyrgyz Republic with
such explanation that they
can harm the interests of the
Kyrgyz Republic.
Based
on
the
recommendations of the
NPM members, this issue was
resolved through the offices
of the Commissioner in the
Republic of Kazakhstan and
