Recommendations – Torture
-
• Ensure that the interrogation of all suspects and detainees takes place
in the presence of a lawyer and that all statements and questions be
recorded in writing or electronically.
• Ensure that victims of torture and other ill-treatments are able to
obtain prompt and adequate reparation from the state, including
restitution, fair and adequate financial compensation and appropriate
medical care, health services and rehabilitation.
• Ensure that the National Committee on Torture is adequately
empowered and funded to carry out its functions including conducting
periodic visits and inspections of places of detention. The Committee
must have access to all places of detention - military detention facilities,
so-called 'preventive' detention centres, the premises of the security
services and all prisons. During inspections, the Committee must be able
to interview detainees in private. Inspection reports must be published.
