At CP Puerto I (Cádiz), a few weeks before the visit, an inmate died
who had been admitted only one month before from another CP, the
reason for his death being unknown at that time. It was stated that
the reserved information proceeding on the death would be carried
out by the CP itself. In the opinion of this Institution, it would be more
adequate for the investigation to be carried out by the central services
of the Secretary General for Penitentiary Institutions including not only
this centre but instead also those at which the inmate stayed little before his death.
Investigations of deaths
should be carried out by the
central services
