28 women at Damoun prison live in bad conditions

 

 

The Commission of Detainees' Affairs called upon the international human rights organisations and feminist  organisations to intervene immediately and stop the violations implemented against women detainees in Damoun prison. 

 

The Commission stated,  according to a visit by the lawyer Hanan Khatib,  that the life condition of women detainees is getting worse,  especially the psychological condition.

 There is  no intervention by the administration of prisons to deal privately with sick detainees or providing them with the appropriate medical care. 

 

The Commission confirmed that the administration of prisons tended to procrastinate in providing the basic needs. 

 

There are currently 28 women in Damoun prison,  in addition to 2 detainees at the clinic of Al-ramla prison and 2 detainees in a civil prison.
