- 80 Ill-treatment
recommendations
-
the Greek authorities to remind prison officers, particularly at Thiva Prison, that verbal
abuse and intimidation of prisoners is not acceptable and will be dealt with severely
(paragraph 90);
-
the Greek authorities to end the practice of routine vaginal examinations of female prisoners
at Thiva Prison and Korydallos Women’s Remand Prison and ensure: that such
examinations are only carried out when absolutely necessary; that each examination is
properly recorded in a special register; that they are performed by a medical practitioner,
who is not the treating doctor of the person concerned; and that they are carried out under
conditions which respect physical safety and human dignity (paragraph 92);
-
the Greek authorities to take due note of the remarks in paragraph 93 when considering
alternatives to a vaginal search which is deemed absolutely necessary (paragraph 93);
-
the practice of obliging women prisoners to take laxatives to be immediately ended
(paragraph 93);
-
any signs of injury to a newly-arrived prisoner as well as relevant statements by the person
concerned and the doctor’s conclusions (including as to the degree of consistency between
the prisoner’s statement and the injuries observed) to be duly recorded by the examining
doctor (paragraph 94);
-
procedures to be in place to ensure that whenever injuries are recorded which are consistent
with allegations of ill-treatment made by the prisoner concerned (or which, even in the
absence of an allegation, are clearly indicative of ill-treatment), the record is systematically
brought to the attention of the competent prosecuting authorities. The results of the
examination should also be made available to the prisoner concerned and his or her lawyer
(paragraph 94);
-
a special register for cases of injuries identified by the medical examination on admission to
be introduced at each prison (paragraph 94);
-
the Greek authorities to devise a national strategy concerning inter-prisoner violence and
intimidation, taking into account the remarks in paragraph 96 (paragraph 96).
