Recommendations for the European Committee for the Prevention of
Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment:
The Committee must consider setting
forward the procedure provided for in
Article 10, paragraph 2 of the
European
Convention
for
the
Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or
Degrading Treatment or Punishment
due to the ongoing and well
documented failure by the Greek State
to make any progress towards
implementing
previous
CPT
recommendations
on
detention
conditions.
The Committee must consider
implementing a country visit to
Greece, paying particular attention to
PRDCs considering that some facilities
have not been visited for more than
five years.
