Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 28
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Although Rule 95 clarifies that the scope of Rule 4 (1) extends to all persons deprived of their liberty, it is nevertheless important to make it explicit that the Rules are effectively applicable to all persons under any form of detention or imprisonment, whether for criminal or civil reasons, whether the person is detained prior to trial, while on remand or after conviction, or whether the individual is subject to so-called special security measures, administrative or corrective measures, or immigration-related measures. The Special Rapporteur urges that it be made explicit that the Rules are applicable to all forms of deprivation of liberty, without exception and regardless of the legal status of the imprisoned person. Furthermore, the Rules shall be applied (Rule 6 (1)) to all arrangements for the custody and treatment of persons subjected to any form of arrest, detention or imprisonment, with no discrimination, on grounds of international law, for example on grounds of age, national, ethnic or social origin, cultural beliefs and practices, birth or other status, including health status, disability, gender or other identity and sexual orientation (see Human Rights Council resolution 17/19 and Human Rights Committee general comment No. 18, para. 7), as well as labelling on grounds of psychological profile or criminal past.
