Poročilo Varuha človekovih pravic Republike Slovenije o izvajanju nalog državnega preventivnega mehanizma za leto 2011 Na več krajih smo tudi od zaprtih oseb slišali pohvale na račun osebja, predvsem na Polodprtem oddelku Slovenska vas ZPKZ Dob pri Mirni, ZPMZ in KZ Celje in Odprtem oddelku Rogoza ZPKZ Maribor. To nas je utrdilo v prepričanju, da je tudi v ZKPZ mogoče opravljati delo v spoštljivem odnosu do zaprtih oseb. Le v PD Radeče in ZPKZ Koper smo prejeli nekaj pritožb nad odnosom pravosodnih policistov do zaprtih oseb, pri čemer je šlo za nepravilnosti, kot so tikanje in podobno, tako da resnih kršitev človekovega dostojanstva nismo ugotovili nikjer. In several locations, we heard praise for the personnel, particularly in the Slovenska vas Semi-open Prison Section of ZPKZ Dob pri Mirni, ZPMZ and KZ Celje and the Rogoza Open Prison Section of ZPKZ Maribor. This assured us that a respectful attitude to imprisoned persons is possible also when working in ZKPZ. Complaints were received only from PD Radeče and ZPKZ Koper concerning the attitude of judiciary police officers towards imprisoned persons, which included irregularities such as informal address and similar, but serious violations of human dignity were not found anywhere. Prav tako smo večkrat z zadovoljstvom ugotovili, da je bilo realiziranih več prejšnjih priporočil DPM, na primer: na Oddelku Murska Sobota ZPKZ Maribor so popravili slabo tesnjenje oken in vdrtine v steni zaradi zamenjave instalacije; na Odprtem oddelku Ig ZPKZ Ljubljana so prepleskali prostor za prhanje in iz bivalnih prostorov so odstranili odvečno embalažo; v Odprtem oddelku Rogoza ZPKZ Maribor so prepleskali bivalne prostore v novem objektu in prostore jedilnice, sobe za obiske in knjižnice, prostori so bili v času obiska tokrat dobro ogrevani. V PD Radeče so bile v prostorih za izločitev odstranjene lesene palice; v ZPKZ Ig so bili oštevilčeni vsi bivalni prostori; za prestajanje uklonilnega zapora so zagotovili ločene prostore; prebeljene so bile sobe vseh oddelkov, podobno tudi drugje. Vse to kaže na to, da se vendarle začenjajo upoštevati predlogi DPM za izboljšanje bivanjskih razmer na obiskanih krajih prostosti, kar je seveda spodbudno in hkrati potrjuje namen našega delovanja. We were pleased to learn that several DPM recommendations had been implemented, such as: in the Murska Sobota Section of ZPKZ Maribor, badly sealed windows and dents in the walls caused by installation replacement had been repaired; in the Ig Open Prison Section of ZPKZ Ljubljana, the showers had been repainted and excess packaging removed from accommodation rooms; in the Rogoza Open Prison Section of ZPKZ Maribor, accommodation rooms in the new facility and the dining room, the rooms for visits and the library had been repainted, and the rooms were well-heated at the time of the visit. In PD Radeče, wooden sticks had been removed from the isolation rooms; in ZPKZ Ig, all accommodation rooms have been numbered, separate rooms provided for compliance detention and the rooms of all units repainted; a similar situation was found elsewhere. All of the above indicates that the proposals of the DPM to improve living conditions at the places of detention visited are being considered, which is encouraging and at the same time justifies the purpose of our operation. Po drugi strani pa smo večkrat ugotavljali, da so materialne razmere za zaprte osebe pretežno slabe (predvsem v Oddelku Nova Gorica ZPKZ Koper in ZPKZ Ljubljana). Zavodi bi lahko več pomanjkljivosti odpravili že z nekaj večjo samoiniciativnostjo. Tako smo v nekaj primerih predlagali, naj se pleskanje izvaja po potrebi, tj. tudi zunaj rednega načrta (Oddelek Nova Gorica ZPKZ Koper, ZPKZ Koper, Oddelek Murska Sobota ZPKZ Maribor ...); naj se bolj sproti skrbi za popravljanje poškodovanega inventarja (npr. ZPKZ Koper, ZPKZ Ljubljana, PD Radeče, Odprti oddelek Rogoza ZPKZ Maribor, Odprti oddelek Ig ZPKZ Ljubljana, Polodprti oddelek Slovenska vas ZPKZ Dob pri Mirni ...). V dveh primerih (Oddelek Murska Sobota ZPKZ Maribor in Oddelek Nova Gorica ZPKZ Koper) pa bi bilo mogoče razmere izboljšati že z odstranitvijo odvečnega pohištva, s čimer bi pridobili več uporabnega prostora v posameznih sobah in zmanjšali občutek utesnjenosti. Kot že tolikokrat doslej, smo tudi v tem letu večkrat ugotovili neustrezno opremljenost prostorov za izločitev (Oddelek Nova Gorica ZPKZ Koper, ZPKZ Ljubljana, PD Radeče, Oddelek Murska Sobota ZPKZ Maribor, ZPKZ Ig). V tej zvezi smo žal predvsem prejemali pojasnila GUURSIKS, da tega niso uredili zaradi pomanjkanja denarja. Menimo, da se s takimi izboljšavami ne bi smelo odlašati. Tudi glede bivanja na prostem in siceršnjih možnosti za telesne dejavnosti zaprtih oseb smo ugotovili nekatere pomanjkljivosti. V Oddelku Murska Sobota ZPKZ Maribor smo tako ugotovili, da še vedno nimajo prostora, v katerem bi jim bila omogočena rekreacija ne glede na vremenske razmere, zato smo predlagali, naj se poskuša urediti vsaj manjši fitnes. V ZPKZ Ljubljana še vedno niso zgradili nadstreška na notranjem sprehajališču, kar bi omogočilo zadrževanje pripornikov na svežem zraku ob slabem vremenu. V zvezi s tem smo morali zavodom še predlagati, naj se prouči možnost za nabavo dodatne opreme za fitnes, ki ga uporabljajo priporniki, saj je bil tudi ta v slabem stanju, oprema pa pomanjkljiva. Oddelek Nova Gorica ZPKZ Koper pa smo lahko pohvalili za prizadevanje, da se pripornikom omogoči več bivanja zunaj bivalnih prostorov. 14 Implementation of the Duties and Powers of the National Preventive Mechanism in 2011 Državni preventivni mehanizem v Republiki Sloveniji po Opcijskem protokolu h Konvenciji OZN proti mučenju in drugim krutim, nečloveškim ali poniževalnim kaznim ali ravnanju On the other hand, it was established several times that the material conditions for imprisoned persons were mostly poor (primarily in the Nova Gorica Section of ZPKZ Koper and in ZPKZ Ljubljana). The institutions could eliminate more irregularities only by showing more selfinitiative. In several cases, we proposed that painting be done whenever necessary, i.e. outside the regular plan (Nova Gorica Section of ZPKZ Koper, ZPKZ Koper, Murska Sobota Section of ZPKZ Maribor ...), and damaged inventory be repaired more promptly (e.g. ZPKZ Koper, ZPKZ Ljubljana, PD Radeče, Rogoza Open Prison Section of ZPKZ Maribor, Ig Open Prison Section of ZPKZ Ljubljana, Slovenska vas Semi-open Prison Section of ZPKZ Dob pri Mirni ...). In two cases (Murska Sobota Section of ZPKZ Maribor and Nova Gorica Section of ZPKZ Koper), conditions could be improved simply by removing excess furniture, creating more useful space in each room and reducing the feeling of confinement. As happened many times before, this year we also frequently established that isolation rooms were inadequatelly fitted (Nova Gorica Section of ZPKZ Koper, ZPKZ Ljubljana, PD Radeče, Murska Sobota Section of ZPKZ Maribor, ZPKZ Ig). Unfortunately, in this regard, we have mostly received explanations from GUURSIKS saying that a lack of funds prevented them from correcting the problem. We believe that such improvements should not be postponed. Some deficiencies were also established concerning stays outdoor and the possibilities imprisoned peson to engage in physical activities. The Murska Sobota Section of ZPKZ Maribor still has no place for recreation that does not depend on weather conditions; therefore, we suggested they organise at least a smaller fitness facility. ZPKZ Ljubljana has still not constructed a projecting roof above the internal promenade, which would allow detained persons to be outside when the weather is bad. In this regard, we suggested the institutions consider the purchase of additional fitness equipment used by the detained persons, as the fitness centre was in a poor condition and the equipment was deficient. We commended the Nova Gorica Section of ZPKZ Koper for their efforts to offer detained persons a prolonged stay outside the accommodation rooms.
