This initiative was made by HRC member Eva Merkacheva

Commissioner for Human Rights Tatyana Moskalkova held an extended meeting on the observance of human rights in places of detention and in administrative proceedings.

It was noted at the meeting that very often citizens receive formal answers from official structures. “Such an attitude towards people is unacceptable,” Moskalkova noted, adding that she will seek some changes to the current legislation.

Moskalkova also supported the proposal of HRC member Eva Merkacheva not to send mothers in labor to cells immediately after giving birth. Now the FSIN explains such a rapid movement of female prisoners by the fact that there are no guards who could protect them outside their cells. A similar problem exists in colonies: if the child is small, he is sent to a hospital where convicted mothers are not allowed access. Doctors cannot be with them constantly, and the children are left alone in the wards.

“Mothers are unlikely to take risks and try to escape from the ward where their child is,” Merkacheva noted.

Moskalkova also sent her appeal to the director of the Federal Penitentiary Service with a request to sort out the situation in women’s colony No. 10 of the Primorsky Territory, where prisoners were actually shaved by force.
