1.5 The visits to police stations Accommodation area for foreigners Special rooms for foreigners were only available in Brežice PS. With regard to rooms for foreigners, the NPM proposed that the Brežice PS examine the possibilities on installing a video-surveillance system, in relation to which the response of the Ministry of the Interior was the same as in relation to the video-surveillance of the reception area. The rooms were adequately clean and equipped. Information for detained persons on their rights A few years ago, the Police issued a brochure on the rights of a person deprived of their liberty in several languages, which was found in every PS. It is noteworthy that the brochure is available in places where it is needed (detention rooms and their waiting areas, rooms for interviews, rooms for foreigners) in the majority of police stations. Information on rights is also provided by means of posters informing readers about deprivation of liberty, which is commendable. In spite of that the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment during its visit to Slovenia in 2012 pointed out a “poor” or inadequate translation of these rights into English and German (for example, such poster was found in Radlje ob Dravi PS). In the response report, the government of the RS informed us, that “the adequacy of the translations of the rights of the detained persons into foreign languages will be examined and that appropriate changes will be made”. For this reason the NPM during this visit requested a message whether the Ministry of the Interior has verified the adequacy of the translations of rights of the detained persons into foreign languages and if not, when it is expected that this will be done and when the corrections of the translations of the rights of the detained person into foreign languages, if necessary​(mainly English and German, which was particularly highlighted by the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment). The Ministry if the Interior informed the NPM that the adequacy of the translations was examined and it was established that they were not particularly adequate. The new posters were not yet printed in the interest of rationality, however, the printing of new posters is planned for the beginning of 2014. In the capacity of the NPM, the human Rights Ombudsman of the Republic of Slovenia sent brochures and posters on the NPM to all police stations in 2011, however, they were not to be found in the majority of police stations. Documentation The inspection of documentation showed it to be mostly carefully arranged and organized. In spite of the above mentioned, some inconsistencies, inaccuracies and irregularities in relation to data inputs where discovered in the documentation. • In a randomly selected case in Slovenske Konjice PS the NPM found that it was not specified in which detention room the person was placed. Therefore the NPM proposed that the police are to be reminded to consistently record all necessary data by means of forms that are needed to carry out the arrest. With regard to this, the Ministry of the Interior informed the NPM that the data on the detention room number was recorded in the report of the duty police officer. • The NPM proposed to Ravne na Koroškem PS that the entry on the detentions in the FIO register be corrected or to actually record the location where the detention took place. Furthermore, the NPM proposed that in cases of detentions under paragraph 2 of Article 157 of the ZPKZ the entries of the location of the detention be examined and corrected, when necessary, or that the actual location of the detention be specified. In relation to this, the Ministry of the Interior informed the NPM that there was an interview held with the police officer, in which they reminded them on the accuracy and consistency in filing out sections of forms and that the data of the record was corrected. • Moreover, the NPM reminded Ravne na Koroškem PS that the police officers must sign the necessary documents for detention. The Ministry of the Interior informed the NPM that the police officers were reminded about the signature of the official note and that the record data was corrected.
