It should be mentioned that during visits detainees mostly complained of the biasness of investigations, groundless arrests, various pressures exerted during investigations, and unjust court decisions rather than detention conditions or treatment. Relevant proposals and recommendations have been submitted to the managements of the establishments concerned, as well as to the corresponding ministries for the elimination of the deficiencies and shortcomings revealed during visits, as well as the improvement of detention conditions, and appropriate measures have been taken by the ministries with regard to each recommendation and relevant information has been provided in this respect. Along with the other problems revealed during the visits to places of detention, it has been determined that the daily food ration provided for detainees, which is uniform for all establishments, and the amount of the funds allocated for that purpose partially meet the real demand. This has necessitated conducting an appropriate analyses and ensuring the unification of food provisioning for all homogenous establishments. For that purpose, the Commissioner has requested the ministries, which have under their authority such places that detainees are not permitted to leave at will, to give information on the size of the daily food ration and amount of the funds allocated for that. 34
