1.2.
Unrestricted Access of the Advocate
1.2.1. The right of an arrested person to meet, privately and
without restriction, an advocate or defender who has
come to visit such person for the purpose of undertaking
his defense shall be safeguarded without any limitation
of the number or duration of visits, or due to working
days or hours.
1.2.2. The requirement to present a letter of engagement to
the PHAP shall be presented to a defender, but not an
advocate who has come for the purpose of undertaking
the defense, because such advocate objectively does
not have the possibility of presenting the documents
required by law for the organization of a visit.
1.3.
Contacts with the Outside World
1.3.1. The visit of a person held in a PHAP with his family
members shall be conducted without physical
separation. A visit granted with a partition shall be the
exception, used only when there is a security threat.
The PHAP administration shall assess the individual risk
level of the person deprived of liberty.
Communication via a telephone or holes on a glass
partition may result in a violation of the right to respect
for private life safeguarded by Article 8 of the ECHR.
1.3.2.
1.3.3.
The right of a person deprived of liberty to contact with
the outside world shall be safeguarded irrespective of
the duration of deprivation of liberty, except for cases
of reasonable and justified necessity of restricting the
exercise of the right to contact with the outside world.
Sufficient light shall be secured in the visitation rooms.
The rooms shall be in a proper condition.
