| 2022 | The prison should take steps to fill vacant positions in the medical department and improve accessibility of mental health services for prisoners. The prison should reorganise dispensing of medication prescribed by a doctor to convicted and remand prisoners so that medicines are given only by healthcare professionals. Where necessary, the Ministry of Justice should prepare the required legislative amendments. | Report details |
| 2023 | Regrettably, the situation in the psychiatric department of prisons has remained the same for years. Patients in the department are in conditions similar to solitary confinement. The patient rooms are bleak and have scanty furnishings. There is no occupational therapist or activity supervisor in the department, there is no space for joint pastime or for therapeutic activities. | Report details |
