51. At the end of the visit, the delegation invoked Article 8, paragraph 5, of the CPT Convention and requested that the Greek authorities close down this unit until such time as it has been appropriately renovated. By communication of 15 December 2022, the Greek authorities responded that the unit had been closed down, the prisoners transferred to other areas of the prison establishment and a process of refurbishment of the unit undertaken (repairs to doors, beds, lighting, electrical installations and wall plaster and the cells repainted). The CPT welcomes the response of the Greek authorities to address the immediate observation. The Committee would like to be informed when the unit is subsequently re-opened as well as about its revised official capacity, the profile of the prisoners held on the unit and the regime offered to them. 5. Case of AA in Korydallos Prison Special Health Centre 52. In the report on the 2021 visit, the CPT had raised the case of AA, a person who was severely disabled on account having no forearms and who was struggling with his daily living needs in the Korydallos Prison Special Health Centre as he required new prostheses. The CPT had recommended that he be provided with effective assistance for his daily living needs including eating, washing and going to the toilet until such time as new prostheses for his arms could be provided. In the Greek authorities’ response to the report on the 2021 visit, which was received in June 2022, it was stated that AA now had effective assistance from another prisoner caregiver and that new prostheses had been identified and the budget allocated and “its implementation can be completed within the next few days”. 53. Regrettably, this was not the case. In fact, the situation of AA at the time of the November 2022 visit remained the same as that found in 2021 in that he was still not being provided with effective assistance for his daily needs. Indeed, every day he was placed in a degrading situation when he had to run to the shower room with his clothing around his ankles to try and clean himself after defaecating in the toilet.19 The delegation invoked Article 8, paragraph 5, of the CPT Convention and requested that the authorities take immediate action to provide HA with new protheses for his arms and that, in the meantime, he be offered the necessary around the clock care to provide for his needs. By communication of 15 December 2022, the Greek authorities informed the CPT that a second care giver had been appointed to assist AA with care and support pending the arrival of his new prostheses. Further, on 30 November AA had visited “Rehabline”, the prosthetic limbs clinic, for a preliminary fitting of the new limbs. The new limbs were expected to be provided to AA by the end of December 2022. The CPT welcomes this information and would like to receive confirmation that HA has now been fitted with his new prostheses. 19. The assigned care giver felt it was not his duty to assist HA in wiping his bottom after he defecated. 18
