Tavros (Petrou Ralli) Central Holding Facility for Aliens, located in Tavros, Attica, was one of the first centres
designed specifically for detaining third country nationals,[139] and was opened in September 2005 with a
capacity of 340. The facility accommodated detainees in locked, barred cells along a corridor, on three
separate floors dividing men, women and children.[140] Despite all children being officially transferred to
the minors’ detention centre in Amygdaleza in 2012, CPT reports suggest that there were still minors being
held there as late as 2016.[141] Likewise, no women were held in Tavros (Petrou Ralli) between 2015-2017,
however after the closure of the womens’ Elliniko facility, many women were transferred to Tavros (Petrou
Ralli) once more.[142]
