CAT/C/JOR/CO/3 (d) Provide detailed information in its next periodic report on the number of complaints, investigations, prosecutions, convictions and sanctions in relation to cases of gender-based violence. Training 41. While taking note of the information provided by the delegation on existing training programmes on anger management and torture prevention organized by the Public Security Directorate, the Committee remains concerned about the limited information on the effectiveness of that training. The Committee appreciates the information provided by the delegation about the new guidelines for prosecutors that include the Manual on the Effective Investigation and Documentation of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (Istanbul Protocol), however, it regrets that no specific training is provided to law enforcement officials, judges, prosecutors, forensic doctors and medical personnel dealing with detained persons on how to detect and document physical and psychological sequelae of torture (art. 10). 42. The State party should: (a) Develop and apply a methodology for assessing the effectiveness of training programmes in reducing the number of cases of torture and ill-treatment and in ensuring the investigation of those acts and prosecution of the perpetrators; (b) Ensure that all relevant staff, including medical personnel are specifically trained to identify cases of torture and ill-treatment, in accordance with the Istanbul Protocol. Conditions of detention 43. The Committee is concerned that despite some measures taken to improve detention conditions, including through the establishment of new correctional and rehabilitation centres, serious challenges persist in detention facilities, in particular, overcrowding, poor sanitation, shortage of medical and health care, as well as a shortage of blankets and adequate food (arts. 11 and 16). 44. The State party should: (a) Continue its efforts to alleviate overcrowding in detention facilities, including through the application of alternative measures to imprisonment, as indicated by the delegation during the dialogue, and the increase in budgetary allocations to develop and renovate the infrastructure of prisons and other detention facilities; (b) Take effective measures to improve sanitation, quality of food, and the health services and facilities available to inmates and prisoners; (c) Ensure the application of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners, in line with relevant international human rights standards. Women migrant workers 45. The Committee is concerned at the ongoing economic and physical exploitation of women migrant workers, especially domestic workers, coupled with insufficient regular inspection visits to monitor their working conditions. It is also concerned about the lack of information concerning prosecution of abusive employers (arts. 12, 13 and 16). 46. The Committee recommends that the State party step up its measures to address the situation of women migrant workers, including by ensuring effective implementation of labour laws and increasing inspection visits to the workplaces and 9
