Country Report: Access to detention facilities
Last updated: 12/11/24
Detained persons in MCC are regularly visited by NGO representatives. For instance, in 2023, the R2P legal team has been carrying out visits to the Zhuravichi MCC twice a month which came along with legal assistance.[1]
In addition, the Parliament Commissioner has access to the places of detention, including the MCC. They are able to visit such places without prior notice of the time and purpose of the visit.[2]
