Safety in unstaffed police detention facilities in Greenland was improved: The safety of persons placed in police detention facilities in Greenland which are not permanently staffed has been significantly improved. However, some aspects of their safety still give cause for concern. That was the Ombudsman’s conclusion af­ ter extensive dialogue with the authorities in charge following a monitoring visit to Greenland in 2013 which included unstaffed detention facilities.
