E/CN.4/1990/17 page 80 "Any allegation of torture properly brought before the competent judicial authorities can be pursued as a separate legal case before the independent courts. Moreover, the complaints can be referred to the European Commission of Human Rights after domestic legal means to pursue the case are exhausted. This has been the procedure followed by Messrs. 'Haydar Kutlu1 and Nihat Sargin. "There has been an increase in the number of the relevant human rights documents used in the training programmes for law enforcement personnel. In this context, it is worth mentioning that a book entitled Human Relations and Torture written by a Turkish judge and Human Rights and the Police prepared by the Committee of Experts for the Promotion of Education and Information in the Field of Human Rights, which is a body of the Council of Europe are in general use. Moreover, Human Rights in Prisons. which is another book prepared by the Council of Europe, will soon be introduced in the training programmes for the personnel of the penitentiary institutions."
