On 21 November 2017, the Chinese company Origin Dynamic (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. promoted a range of body-worn electric shock devices at Milipol 2017 held in Paris, France. Among the products were: “Ering 210 Electric Ankle Cuffs” described as a “behaviour controlling system forced to be worn on the prisoner’s ankles” capable of delivering a “high-voltage shock” of 200 KV.113 A second device, “Constraint”, employs an “electronic pulse” and is worn on a prisoner’s arms or legs. According to the company: “One click will bring down the person and the wearer will lose capability to act and attack”.114 In addition, to promotional images and materials, the “Constraint” device (as well as a vest containing this device) was physically displayed at the company’s stand during Milipol 2017. It is unclear how Origin Dynamic could physically display these items at Milipol 2017 when their import was prohibited under EC Regulation 1236/2005 (which is directly applicable in all EU Member States, including France). Amnesty International publicised this case115 and immediately brought the matter to the attention of the Milipol organisers (and the French Government) who subsequently closed the company’s stand.116 3.2. Recommendations  CoE member States should prohibit the production, promotion, import, export, brokering or other transfer of electric shock belts, electric shock cuffs and any other electric shock devices designed for attachment to the body of a prisoner or detainee. The use of body-worn electric shock devices by CoE law enforcement and prison officials should be prohibited, and any existing devices should be removed and verifiably destroyed. 113 Origin Dynamic electric shock products poster, on display 21 November on Origin Dynamic stall, Milipol 2017, Paris, France; Origin Dynamic product catalogue, distributed at Origin Dynamic stall, Milipol 2017, Paris, France (copy held by the Omega Research Foundation). 114 Ibid. 115 Amnesty International, EU: Amnesty discovers gruesome illegal torture equipment for sale in Paris, 22 November 2017. 116 New York Times, French fair shuts stand after Amnesty finds “torture tool”, 22 November 2017. 27
