NATIONAL PREVENTIVE MECHANISM RECOMMENDATIONS

Year Recommendation Report
2017The [trans male] prisoner is housed alone in his cell, does not participate in activities or outings with other prisoners, eats alone in his cell and showers alone. The only regular contact he has is with the warden who participates in activities with him (beehive, table tennis). According to Mr C., he has regular monthly medical check-ups as a possible object of violence. He spends about 23 hours alone in his cell, reading, making beehives, watching TV. He also has meetings with a psychologist and a chaplain. He is uncomfortable with social isolation and would like to participate in activities with other inmates (or be placed on a regular ward for part of the day) with staff present. He would also like to be involved in work. [...] Recommendation: To integrate convict C among the other convicts, initially under the supervision of the prison staff, and to try to find convict C a job (without delay). Report details
